The cluster would include a separate paediatric treatment and waiting area.

The facility is planned to be extended on an area of land adjacent to the existing emergency department and will house both patients and administrative staff.

It is the second recent project to be delivered by Willmott Dixon Interiors for East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust.

Willmott Dixon Interiors managing director Graham Shaw said: “This project will create more clinical areas and deliver a much larger space within the emergency department of Conquest Hospital, which will allow NHS staff to separate Covid-19 patients more easily.”
