"OCP was able to help set the tone for the safety, speed, quality, and efficiency of the project as a whole and performed well for the entire time that they were on the project site. Doster would be quick to work with OCP on future projects."

-Austin Young, Assistant Superintendent, Doster

Encompass Health offers therapy and care to patients after a life-changing illness or injury. The nationwide company is committed to delivering high-quality, cost-effective, integrated healthcare services.

As part of their current expansion across the US, Encompass is building a 40-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Toledo, Ohio. The facility offers physical, occupational, and speech therapies as well as 24-hour nursing care. OCP Contractors was awarded the project due to their vast experience in healthcare construction.

The project began in January of 2020 and encountered unique challenges during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The OCP team strategized to overcome a two-week jobsite shutdown and make up for the lost time. Thanks to strategic foresight, OCP maintained the schedule. The foremen coordinated closely with the GC ensuring the sequencing of trades, making sure all MEPS were prepped for the OCP team. Despite an accelerated schedule, OCP maintained their strict safety standards with no incidents reported onsite.

OCP's Lean principles contributed to meeting the aggressive schedule. These included microscope tracking on the acoustic ceilings and whiteboards managing the progress of the tile installation. These practices allow the superintendent to see where the project timeline is and organize tradespeople quickly.

Always coming to the client with resolutions for cost-saving to the project, OCP benefitted the project by value engineering the acoustical ceiling utilizing CertainTeed.

The modern architecture of the facility includes a vaulted ceiling within the atrium. To provide a tranquil area for guests and a connection to nature, OCP constructed a gazebo in the courtyard.

Due to the project team's success, OCP is looking forward to working with Doster Construction again.

"I would like to commend your company for its efforts in the construction of the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Toledo, Ohio. OCP performed admirably during the construction of the building and helped produce an exceptional facility for Encompass Health Corporation and the residents of the Toledo community. We appreciate and recognize that OCP was a major player in the success of the overall project. Dan Bartolet and Ron Kristof were easy to work with, communicated well, prioritized safety, produced quality work, and exemplified great leadership throughout all phases of the job. It has been a gratifying experience working with OCP's team. Doster Construction Company looks forward to partnering again in the future."

"OCP was a pleasure to work with through everyday activities. OCP had vast forethought into the construction plan and was quick to bring solutions to the table for any issues that arose during construction. The field team brought many years of experience to the table while also paying close attention to growing their younger field leaders and allowing these guys to manage work. Doster enjoyed the leadership that OCP showed while onsite and in a meeting setting. OCP was able to help set the tone for the safety, speed, quality, and efficiency of the project as a whole and performed well for the entire time that they were on the project site. Doster would be quick to work with OCP on future projects."
