The challenge
Act swiftly to help deliver temporary hospital to combat Covid-19
The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a severe shortage in hospital beds and placed a strain on the National Health Service as they struggle to cope with the massive demand placed upon them.
Temporary hospitals have allowed sufferers of the virus to receive the critical care they need – but these brand-new hospitals demand power. Without a contingency plan – patients will be at risk.
The Sunderland Temporary Hospital Project is one of these projects, designed to help ease the weight placed on the permanent hospitals in the North-East. A total of 460 beds comprises the setup, which will have a massive effect on the region’s ability to combat Covid-19.
The electrical contractor responsible for the project was recommended our services by the NHS Trust after previous examples of working with our experts.
We have plenty of experience in delivering our mobile, modular services in short timeframes – and this would prove crucial to the delivery of the hospital and ultimately – thousands of lives.
