New Hybrid Theatre
Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust
A much needed extension and ground breaking theatre at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London. Logan Construction were delighted to secure this important project working in conjunction with the Royal Brompton Hospital following a high profile charity fundraising appeal.
The construction works comprised the formation of a new Hybrid operating theatre suite, which combined complex imagining equipment in an environment where different surgical procedures can take place at the same time, allowing a series of procedures which would normally take weeks, or even months, to now be done on the same day.
The project included new clinical staff changing facilities and the formation of surgical offices. The works were undertaken over several levels of the hospital, both internally and externally, where teamwork with several hospital departments ensured that effective logistics and mutually beneficial plans were put in place.
Major structure alterations to permit services and new staircases were included along with an extensive renewal of M&E services, whilst ensuring continuity of the existing ‘live’ theatre operations and critical care units which were adjacent to the construction works.
The works included groundworks, piling and drainage alterations, construction of a new steel framed building and full fit-out and provision of specialist equipment facilities.

“All the works were very clearly explained, communicated and coordinated to ensure they were carried out safely, to time and that we could carry on functioning as a seven day diagnostic lab.

“Thanks for showing me around the Hybrid Lab today; I was extremely impressed with the layout, workmanship and finish and am delighted we are moving to the commissioning phase. I am particularly grateful to you for managing the theatre disruption so effectively and to all members of staff adversely affected by the noise and dust.”
