PRVC Systems today announced the successful completion of a comprehensive installation at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in Washington, D.C. The project involved removing and replacing outdated curtain systems with PRVC’s patented hospital curtain tracks across all four floors of the facility.
The installation covered more than 500 rooms, introducing a fully upgraded hospital privacy curtain track system that provides complete patient enclosure while maintaining full compatibility with all ceiling and wall-mounted patient lift systems. This integration ensures uninterrupted mobility for staff and patients, allowing lifts to move freely through rooms and adjoining bathrooms without interference. The result delivers both privacy and operational efficiency for the facility’s staff and residents.
The new setup provides a continuous, unobstructed path for lifts while enabling full enclosure of a patient’s space at any time. Hospital staff at VAMC can now reposition curtains or perform maintenance at floor level, avoiding the need for ladders or elevated access.
Because the installation spanned multiple departments, PRVC Systems coordinated closely with the hospital’s engineering, infection control, and patient mobility teams to complete the project without interrupting patient care. This collaboration ensured that every phase of the upgrade aligned with safety, infection control, and patient mobility standards. The result is a system that enhances patient dignity, simplifies staff workflow, and aligns with modern safety and accessibility standards.
PRVC Systems is recognized nationwide for its patented wall-mounted hospital curtain track systems, which outperform traditional ceiling-mounted alternatives. Its medical curtain track design allows for the placement and maintenance of curtains from the floor, eliminating the hazards and logistical challenges associated with additional work. The system is compatible with all brands of linear and X, Y, Z patient lift systems, solving common “lift-versus-curtain” conflicts that often arise in patient rooms and bathroom areas.
All PRVC curtains meet NFPA 701 fire-retardant standards and are available with antimicrobial protection, contributing to safer, cleaner healthcare environments. The company’s focus on hygiene, efficiency, and regulatory compliance makes it a preferred partner for healthcare facilities across the nation. Its curtains are quieter, smoother to operate, and more durable than conventional systems.
The new VAMC Washington installation reflects PRVC’s capability to manage high-volume, high-complexity hospital projects across the United States. The project highlights PRVC’s ongoing commitment to advancing privacy, safety, and mobility within patient environments through systems built for both function and compliance. Its hospital curtain track systems feature rapid swap-out capabilities, universal panel sizing to simplify inventory, and full compatibility with patient lifts, offering hospitals a dependable, future-ready privacy solution.
By installing this upgraded system, VAMC Washington, DC has enhanced patient comfort and privacy while preserving critical mobility infrastructure. The new layout empowers caregivers to reposition curtains or access areas quickly, even during emergencies, without creating new obstructions or risks. The lift-compatible cubicle curtain track solution now fully integrates into both patient rooms and bathrooms, delivering continuity of care and dignity.
This project demonstrates how modern infrastructure investments in hospital environments can have technical and human impacts. PRVC expects that this successful deployment will serve as a model for other large medical centers seeking to upgrade aging privacy and lift systems without sacrificing patient and staff convenience.
