Turner Construction to Build $90 Million Healthcare Facility for Sandusky Veterans Home
The Turner Construction Company has been selected to construct a $90 million healthcare facility for the Sandusky Veterans Home in Ohio, a project that will enhance access to high-quality care for the state’s veteran community. The Sandusky Veterans Home, with its 136-year legacy of serving those who served the nation, will see its capacity significantly expanded through this important initiative.
This project, aimed at addressing the growing demand for veteran healthcare in the region, will add 128 new patient care beds. These additional resources will not only accommodate more veterans but also improve the overall quality of services provided. The new facility represents a long-term investment in the health and well-being of veterans and their families, ensuring they receive the care and support they deserve.
Turner Construction’s Vice President and General Manager, Taurean Spratt, expressed pride in being selected for such a meaningful endeavor. “We are honored to be chosen for a project that will have such a profound impact on Ohio’s veteran community,” said Spratt. “This addition will strengthen the Sandusky Veterans Home’s ability to meet the needs of veterans while reinforcing its reputation as a trusted and compassionate care provider. We’re excited to collaborate with the Sandusky community to bring this important project to life.”
Construction on the new healthcare facility is scheduled to begin in 2025, with a projected completion date in 2027. During this time, Turner Construction will work closely with stakeholders to ensure the project is executed efficiently and meets the highest standards of quality.
The healthcare expansion is part of a broader effort to address critical gaps in veteran care across the country. Facilities like the Sandusky Veterans Home play a vital role in supporting veterans as they transition to civilian life or manage the challenges of aging and medical needs. The addition of 128 patient care beds will not only increase the facility’s capacity but also its ability to cater to specialized healthcare needs, ensuring Ohio’s veterans receive the attention and resources they deserve.
Beyond the immediate benefits to the veteran community, the project is expected to bring economic growth to Sandusky and surrounding areas. The construction process will create jobs and provide opportunities for local businesses to contribute to the project.
The Sandusky Veterans Home, known for its dedication to holistic veteran care, will continue to be a cornerstone of support for Ohio’s veteran population. The new healthcare facility marks a significant step forward in its mission to serve those who have served the nation. With the support of Turner Construction, the expansion promises to leave a lasting legacy for future generations of veterans and their families.
