Elective Care at Eastbourne General Hospital

OVERVIEW

Eastbourne General Hospital's new Elective Care Hub represents a significant investment in improving patient access to day surgery across Sussex. Working inconjunction with IHP, Medspace Solutions played a critical role in this project by manufacturing and installing high-quality, fitted furniture and equipment, contributing to the hub's functionality, efficiency, and patient-centered environment.

The £22.5 million Elective Care Hub was designed to provide a modern, purpose-built day surgery unit, featuring pre-assessment areas, four operating theatres, and dedicated admission, recovery, and discharge spaces. The hub aims to increase day surgery capacity, reduce waiting times, and enhance the overall patient experience. This project, a partnership between East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, NHS Sussex, and NHS England, is a testament to the commitment to improving elective care services.

Medspace Solutions was entrusted with the manufacturing and installation of a wide range of essential fitted furniture and equipment. This included:

  • Reception desks, featuring complex, radiused curves that required precise craftsmanship for seamless joints.
  • Staff bases, designed for optimal functionality and efficiency.
  • HTM63 cabinetry, including units with roller shutter doors, meeting stringent hygiene standards.
  • Durable and hygienic worktops.
  • Curtain rail tracks, spur shelving, and mirrors, contributing to a comfortable and functional environment.

While the project adhered to standard healthcare constraints, such as tight deadlines and stringent hygiene requirements, Medspace Solutions faced a specific technical challenge: creating seamless joints in the curved reception desks. Through meticulous planning and expert craftsmanship, the team successfully delivered a flawless finish, showcasing their technical expertise.

Medspace Solutions' contributions directly supported the Elective Care Hub's goals:

  • Enhanced Hygiene: The materials and design of the furniture met the rigorous hygiene standards required for a surgical environment.
  • Improved Staff Workflow: The functional design of staff bases and cabinetry optimized workflow, contributing to increased efficiency.
  • Positive Patient Experience: The high-quality furniture and attention to detail created a comfortable and welcoming environment for patients.
  • On-Time Completion: The efficient installation process ensured the project stayed on schedule.

Hospital leadership expressed their satisfaction with the project. Steve Phoenix, Chairman of East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, and Joe Chadwick-Bell, Chief Executive, highlighted the hub's importance in improving patient care and enhancing staff facilities.

Medspace Solutions' expertise in manufacturing and installing fitted furniture and equipment played a vital role in the successful completion of the Elective Care Hub at Eastbourne General Hospital.

Our commitment to quality, functionality, and hygiene contributed to a modern, efficient, and patient-centered environment, ultimately enhancing elective care services for the Sussex community.
