As demand for NHS services continues to skyrocket across the UK, with an estimated 4.7 million people in England now on the waiting list for routine operations, increasing surgical capacity must be top of the agenda for NHS decision-makers.
Currently, waiting times for operations are the longest they’ve been in more than a decade, with an average delay of 52 weeks for routine theatre procedures.
At ModuleCo Healthcare, we are determined to do what we can to help our NHS get back on its feet and make a positive post-COVID recovery. However, this can only be achieved by swift and serious action from both the public and private sectors.
It is well known that modular theatres that are built offsite using modern methods of construction (MMC) can be delivered to site much faster than traditional facilities, with an operating theatre usually available within 12 weeks.
However, ModuleCo Healthcare has decided to take this one step further, by offering one of our high specification and compliant theatres available for immediate delivery. By pre-building this modular theatre in our factory ahead of a confirmed order, NHS hospitals can benefit from the additional capacity as soon as possible, with our theatres being procedure ready within a matter of weeks.
What’s more, we are also offering the opportunity for healthcare professionals to book in to view one of our modular theatres in situ at our factory in Mitcheldean, Gloucestershire. During this visit, they can enjoy an exclusive tour with one of our team of experts, exploring the features of our modular theatres. There will also be the opportunity to discuss our hire or managed service options as well as any specific requirements to make sure that the theatre is entirely fit for purpose, ensuring they are making a well-informed decision.
The theatres we offer can be tailored to individual needs, both financially and in terms of operational requirements. We also offer bespoke Managed Service Agreements which provide the option to include associated enabling works, medical equipment and facilities management, should any of these be required. We use this information to create a flexible finance solution that aligns with the precise needs and budgets of the NHS Trust in question.
