Aiutare il Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust

Vanguard Healthcare Solutions worked alongside the Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust to design and build an endoscopy “one-stop” solution which incorporates not only two high quality clinical procedure rooms but also an in-house suite di decontaminazione dell'endoscopio con sede al Wexham Park Hospital di Slough.

L'edificio comprende anche una reception e un'area di attesa, due sale di consultazione, un'area di recupero da sei posti letto, servizi per i pazienti e cucina, benessere del personale e locali tecnici, locali di stoccaggio e impianti. L'edificio modulare, composto da 46 singole unità, è stato realizzato in poco meno di due mesi.

Capacity for elective procedures all over the country have faced increased pressure as a result of COVID-19. Since opening in February this year, the unit has seen high volumes of patients everyday day. The unit performs a range of endoscopy procedures including colonoscopies, sigmoidoscopies and gastroscopies. It is staffed by the Trust’s own clinical teams.

Simon Conroy, National Endoscopy Sales Manager for Vanguard Healthcare Solutions, said: “This project is a great example of a Trust using innovative thinking and solutions to help them provide essential patient care and increase capacity.

Stephen Holmes, Associate Director of Capital at Frimley Health, said: “We were very impressed with the speed at which the new endoscopy suite was designed and built. It has enabled us to rapidly increase capacity for these important diagnostic services at Wexham Park Hospital so that more of our patients can be assessed as soon as possible.”
