Emergency Department Examination Rooms, Norfolk
The National Health Service (NHS) are focused on meeting the health and care needs of people across Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.
Brief
With close focus on waiting times in NHS emergency departments one of our local hospitals had an innovative plan to insert two GP examination rooms in a wide corridor at the entrance, to help visitors arriving who may not necessarily need emergency care.
iQ Workspace were engaged to provide two spaces that are fully operational as doctor’s surgery rooms between the triage area and the Emergency Departments. Each room needed to be fully cleanable, private and contain all the services needed by the medical staff.
Work Pods Solution
iQ Workspace’s bespoke Frem work pod solutions do not fix to any of the building’s structure so effectively act as a piece of freestanding furniture, allowing them to be relocated or repurposed at any point in the future. The acoustic meeting pods have entirely glass walls with an opaque film covering. PIR operated lighting and air movement fans operate automatically on entry via a lockable glass door. Electric points beneath the doctor’s Optima desk provide power for computer equipment and additional electrical provision is supplied to power the stand-alone hot water hand wash and electrically operated examination bed. A privacy curtain is secured to the pod’s ceiling to ensure patient’s modesty.
