The South Tyneside Trust appointed the practice to upgrade and expand their maternity facilities incuding an upgrade of the exterior façade.
Refurbishment of the existing Maternity department to provide a ‘homely’ and non clinical delivery suite. The project brief was to remove the existing external fabric and upgrade as part of a phased overhaul of the complete building. A new external entrance and canopy was also designed and constructed.
The practice therefore has a vast amount of experience in maternity design and technical advice on the latest design guides over the last 10 years.
We have studied the recently published HBN 09-02 Maternity Care Facilities 2013 and all designs are following the latest guidance for consultant led and midwifery led units.
