USC Opens Advanced Brain Health Center in Columbia
Healthcare Design highlights the opening of the new Brain Health Center at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. RMF Engineering's Charleston office provided mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection engineering design services for the project, which renovated a 65,000-square-foot facility to deliver diagnostic, treatment, and support services for patients with cognitive conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
The center will serve as the hub of USC’s statewide Brain Health Network, bringing together advanced imaging, integrated care, and research under one roof. RMF’s team collaborated closely with USC, architects, and other consultants to create state-of-the-art spaces that support innovative brain health treatment, enhance the patient experience, and expand access to specialized neurological care across South Carolina.
Design Team: Quackenbush Architects + Planners and Perkins&Will
