The Baird Family Hospital will provide modern clinical accommodation to support the provision of high quality clinical services and create welcoming healthcare environments which will promote positive patient experiences.
What we want the new hospital to look and feel like:
- Welcoming, attractive exterior
- Works well with existing buildings on the site
- Works well with adjacent residential housing
- Creates a positive first impression outside as well as inside
- Light and airy feel
- Clear way finding and an easy building to get to
- Pleasant walks from parking and public transport
- Parking close by for patients
- Useable and attractive external spaces
Examples of new and improved services:
- 100% single en-suite rooms for in-patients.
- 24 hour Maternity Triage Service.
- Transitional Care available for families in the Neonatal Unit before discharge.
- Patient Hotel available for patients from the Northern Isles and other remote areas.
