Burris Construction Co., in Moorestown, N.J., is staying busy according to an article on Phillyburbs.com. The firm, which specializes in nursing homes and related health care facilities, has taken on another project for Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital-Hamilton in Mercer County.
The Burris Post Acute Network, part of Burris Construction, will start work soon on a short-stay private rehabilitation center at the hospital’s Kuser Road campus. Last year, Burris completed a $30 million rehabilitation center in Voorhees, Camden County, called PowerBack, with 124 private rooms for patients who have had joint replacements or heart trouble and are not ready to go home.
"The Voorhees center is a demonstration of the future of health care," said Burris in the article.
The rehabilitation center will be operated and managed by Genesis HealthCare, a Kennett Square, Pa., nursing home developer that owns several facilities in Burlington County.
The construction should create more than 150 jobs, hospital officials said. When the building is completed, it will contain 110 suites for recovering patients.
