UK-based construction company Willmott Dixon Interiors has developed two endoscopy suites at Montagu Hospital in Doncaster, UK.
The £4.8m ($6m) project is intended to improve patient and staff amenities at the Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals (DBTH).
It was led by Willmott Dixon Interiors and involved an extensive revamp of more than 9,000ft² of the hospital’s endoscopy ward and rotunda building.
The new facilities include a reception, waiting area, discharge lounge and recovery ward, as well as ancillary, consultation and staff rooms.
The hospital has also had a complete electrical rewire and an enhanced ventilation system, with new air handling units added and ducting installed on the rooftop via a newly constructed gantry.
Willmott Dixon Interiors said that during the refurbishment, it prioritised sustainability by diverting 90% of waste from landfill.
