Renovating an ER Without Raising a Pulse

How Tucson Medical Center kept its ER fully operational during a major renovation—without compromising safety, comfort, or infection control.

When DPR Construction set out to renovate 75% of Tucson Medical Center’s emergency department, they needed a containment solution that could meet strict ICRA 2.0 requirements while minimizing disruption to patient care.

The solution? STARC’s RealWall system—delivering airtight containment, sound attenuation, and professional appearance in an active healthcare environment.

This case study walks through: 

  • Why drywall doesn't cut it for infection control.
  • How the team remained ICRA 2.0 compliant.

  • How STARC’s RealWall sped up install time at each project phase.
