Medway Maritime Hosp. MHDU

Due to the central location within the hospital, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Bauvill’s project team were faced with a multitude of logistical, health and safety challenges in order to effectively deliver the scope of works. In collaboration with the Trust project group, Bauvill prioritised the formation of a detailed risk register, identifying all associated risks and their subsequent impacts before producing a mitigation strategy along with the Construction Phase and Logistics plans. This detailed pre-planning and assessment paved the way for the refurbishment phase to commence, with a series of control measures in place to ensure the safest work environment possible whilst causing minimum disruption to surrounding wards.

Over the course of the four-month program of works, Bauvill site operatives delivered the following refurbishment items:

The final handover presented a complete transformation of the previously unused space, giving the Trust something fit for purpose and to a high spec. Both the client and staff of the new ward gave praise to Bauvill’s workmanship during a particularly sensitive time for the hospital.
