3 Theatre Surgical Facility – Orthopaedic Centre of Excellence
About Project
In March 2023 ModuleCo Healthcare (MCH) successfully handed over a surgical facility – 3 theatre and staff accommodation suite to Neath Port Talbot Hospital part of Swansea Bay University Health Board. In partnership with our manufacturing providers ModuleCo. The new state-of-the-art facility is set to become the Centre of Excellence for Orthopaedic and Spinal Surgery in the region.
MCH were awarded the project through the Shared Business Service framework (SBS) via a 10-year Managed Services agreement. Swansea Bay University Health Board required a new facility to help address the backlog in elective Orthopaedic procedures reducing waiting times for their patients. Once the backlog has been addressed, the additional capacity also helps the Health Board futureproof for sudden changes in demand giving them increased stability.
Our Client’s Challenge
With waiting lists for elective Orthopaedic surgeries already an issue for the Health Board before Covid-19, the impact of the pandemic only heightened the backlog with over half of patients waiting over 2 years for surgery. This led the Health Board to act using their “changing for the future” programme in which the new surgical facility provided by MCH plays a key part in delivering the objectives set out.
Our Solution
The installation of the facility was completed over 7 days which came in ahead of our already tight schedule reducing the impact on the live hospital site. The Health Board plan to offer a ring-fenced elective service to address the backlog as quickly as possible and from then on remain on top of all Orthopaedic elective surgeries across the region moving forward.
What Customers Say?
“The three new theatres have been built quickly and efficiently to meet the exacting standards of modern-day Orthopaedic and spinal surgery. They provide a substantial increase in the size of the theatre footprint which should enable more complex spinal and revision arthroplasty to be performed in a dedicated elective surgical hub”
