We are pleased to announce that the new stroke unit at West Middlesex Hospital is now complete. AHP worked on this project with Logan Construction which was aimed at enhancing the built environment and introducing new services for the Chelsea & Westminster NHS Foundation Trust
The project, valued at £3.4 million, entailed a range of alterations and modifications to the Marjory Warren Block located on the ground floor of West Middlesex University Hospital. One of the primary objectives of the project was to establish a state-of-the-art 24-bed stroke ward. In addition to the stroke ward, the project involved the creation of ancillary accommodation and a rehabilitation room, enhancing the overall healthcare services available to patients.
To accommodate these new facilities, the project saw the installation of modern mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and heating (MEPH) services and partitions and fixtures will be put in place. These upgraded systems will ensure that the new area meets all of the modern technical requirements and is properly equipped to support the enhanced medical and wellness services provided to patients.
The project proved to be quite challenging as we had to work within the limitations of the current building structure. Like many similar projects, various unexpected issues arose during the construction process. This required quick reaction from the site and design team to enable the project to progress successfully.
We are happy to report that the whole team involved delivered to produce a successful and well received project. A special thanks is extended to the trust and its clinical team. Early and detailed engagements were essential to ensure that the requirements of its service users were met.
The ribbon cutting ceremony was held on 2nd July 2024 with patients and staff moving in to occupy the ward on the same day.
