F.H. Paschen and Liberty Dayton Regional Medical Center Celebrate Completion of Key Patient and Staff Space Upgrades

LIBERTY, TX – Construction Company F.H. Paschen joined Liberty Dayton Regional Medical Center leadership, staff and patients this week to celebrate the ribbon cutting of the hospital’s newly renovated central nurses’ station, medicine room, physician’s office and new patient room.

The substantial upgrades mark a major improvement for the Central Nurses Station, which is one of the hospital’s most critical spaces. The new enhancements are designed to better support care teams serving both the Emergency Room and Inpatient Unit. Other newly renovated spaces include a renovation of a physician’s office, the Medicine Room and creating a new, additional patient room from underutilized space.

Located approximately 30 minutes outside of Houston, Liberty Dayton Regional Medical Center has served the community from its current location since 1951. As a rural facility that sees patients spanning generations from boomers to infants and patient populations across the insurance and economic spectrum, the enhancements aim to improve both staff experience and patient care.

“Every day, our team delivers exceptional patient care, and these new modern, efficient spaces will help us do that even better,” said Rhonda Campbell, RN, CEO of Liberty Dayton Regional Medical Center. “As the central hub for both our Emergency Room and Inpatient Unit, the upgraded nurses’ station is essential to how we serve this community. The partnership with F.H. Paschen was successful from the start, with a shared focus on what our staff and patients need most.”

The renovation included upgraded floors, new gypsum walls and paint, doors and hardware, wall protection, modern ceilings, and solid surface countertops. Technology updates included improvements to the nurse call system and supporting tech infrastructure. While the footprint remained the same, every visible and functional aspect of the station was refreshed to meet the needs of a modern care environment.

The project was completed in just eight weeks and finished ahead of schedule. F.H. Paschen also played a key role beyond construction, supporting LDRMC in developing the scope, permitting, and staying within budget.

“This is the kind of project that matters deeply to a community,” said William Rocha, Vice President of F.H. Paschen, who leads the firm’s operations across Texas. “By working alongside Liberty Dayton together, we were able to deliver a space that helps their teams do what they do best: care for patients.”

F.H. Paschen has a growing presence in Texas with offices in Houston, Irving and Galveston and a team of 50 project managers, engineers and laborers. The Liberty Dayton project adds to the firm’s healthcare portfolio, which includes projects at MD Anderson Cancer Center and UT Southwestern Medical Center.

“The unique nature of our partnership with Liberty Dayton meant that we were able to work side-by-side with their team from the earliest stages, helping shape the project scope, navigate permits and help keep the budget on track,” said Mike Carroll, Project Superintendent at F.H. Paschen. “It has been rewarding to continue to help strengthen healthcare infrastructure across Texas.”
