We are excited to officially begin the expansion and renovation of our Marklund Wasmond Center in Elgin. This facility serves children and adults with profound disabilities and complex medical needs. We are one of only eight organizations in the state that provide these types of services. This was a monumental decision for the future of Marklund, and those we serve.
The 20,000-square-foot expansion project will include space for an additional 24 beds, allowing us to increase our residency capacity to 85 people!
It will also allow us to expand the acuity level of our services by providing 24-hour vent care.
We will also add a recreation room, dining room, several nurses’ stations, spa room, Community Day Services classroom and much needed storage space.
The renovation portion of the project will modernize and update the rest of the facility including program space for the Community Day Service classrooms, staff offices, sensory room, and the therapeutic treatment area. The project is scheduled to start this fall and we expect it to be complete by late fall of 2025.
MORE DETAILS TO COME!
