Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, Riverside, CAContractor: McCarthy Builders
Year of Completion: 1998
Arrowhead Regional Medical Center is a state-of-the-art 373-bed facility featuring the newest technology in the field of patient care. The Medical Center is host to a 24-hour Emergency Department, Level II Trauma Center, Transplant services, three Family Health Centers and the only Burn Center serving San Bernardino, Riverside, Inyo and Mono counties.
A pilot program of Senate Bill 1953, Arrowhead was one of the state’s first seismically-significant, “base isolated” structures. Image a free-floating, shock-absorbed building designed to dampen the effects of the inevitable earthquakes to come and the challenges this would present to a plumbing contractor whose pipes are tied into the ground which does not move. The introduction of ball joints in pressure piping and the radical increase in demands of seismic bracing required every ounce of Pan-Pacific’s innovation, flexibility and problem-solving techniques to keep this project on track.

Contractor: McCarthy
Year of Completion: 2005
This $7.2 million plumbing project is an eight-story patient building catered toward women and child care. It has operating rooms, MRIs, Neo-Natal ICUs and full laboratories.
This healthcare addition was difficult as it was added to an existing, busy hospital. It required extensive coordination of efforts and communication to ensure that there would be no issues with patient care or emergency and ambulance access.
There was a very tight schedule and Pan-Pacific’s healthcare professionals worked diligently to ensure coordination happened with each move of men and pipe to ensure that everything ran smoothly for the existing hospital during the expansion.
This project earned McCarthy the “Iron Mike”, the Project of the Year Award, and through the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the team, McCarthy was able to return a great deal of money to the hospital.
