Warden has completed work on a major project at Southport Hospital that will boost clinical capacity and enhance patient care.
A new £3.4m standalone endoscopy unit has been delivered, with a £4.3m CT department extension underway, in collaboration with Vinci Facilities, on behalf of the Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.
The single-storey endoscopy unit features two state-of-the-art treatment rooms and eight recovery bays, offering modern facilities to support growing demand for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Works included the installation of internal doors, integrated plumbing systems (IPS), flooring, external cladding, and associated external works.
The CT department project involved an extension to increase clinical space and house a new scanner that will support the provision of quicker diagnostic results, as well as a full internal refurbishment and remodelling of the existing area.
Located close to other wards, the works demanded enhanced air quality, vibration, and noise monitoring to protect vulnerable patients throughout the programme.
Ian Williams, Managing Director at Warden, said: “We’re proud to support Southport Hospital with the delivery of these essential new healthcare facilities. It’s a significant investment in the future of local healthcare infrastructure and will provide vital services that speed up patient care.
“Projects like this demonstrate how modern construction can bring real value to local communities, improving patient experience while also supporting hardworking NHS professionals and creating opportunities for future talent.”
The professional team on this project included Ryder Architecture (lead designer and principal designer), Steve Hunt Associates (M&E consultant), and Burrows Graham (structural and civil engineer).
Community engagement has played a role throughout the project, with the Warden team supporting apprenticeship training weeks and charity initiatives.
