Healthcare
The healthcare sector is currently facing one
of its most challenging periods. New technology systems are
changing the way our primary care trusts work, bringing patient
information together across wide geographical gaps. These
developments are reinvigorating the NHS and now the biggest
building scheme in NHS history is currently taking shape.
The effects of the built environment on a
patients’ health and wellbeing, and the mounting focus on
sustainable buildings, facilities and services, are bringing a new
range of complex planning, design and construction challenges for
the NHS, public sector and private companies.
Whilst a pre-requisite in planning hospitals
is that they be fit for purpose, it’s also important that
flexibility is in-built. There is significant need to future-proof
buildings to cope with the challenges of multi-function
multi-occupancy departments, whilst ensuring the facility has a
well designed internal environment to motivate and uplift staff,
and encourage rest and recovery in patients.
We have brought together a comprehensive range
of partitioning, wall and ceiling lining systems that have been
extensively tested and have a proven track record of use in
healthcare facilities, to help you design, build and operate
healthcare environments.
