Healthcare

Millard Consulting has extensive experience of delivering healthcare projects. Our professionals work with stakeholders and advisors to devise a tailored action plan ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to input information.

Our focus on client needs enables us to effectively work with the rest of the team and stakeholders, to design an appropriate solution to specific patient care requirements.

"design an appropriate solution to specific patient care requirements"

Millard Consulting has extensive healthcare experience, including:

  • Neath Port Talbot Hospital, procured under PFI; which included a separate Mental Health facility
  • James Paget Hospital, Great Yarmouth – Campus masterplanning, preplanning advice, traffic management proposals, parking and transportation assessment and highway design
  • 20 medical centres across the north of England and Scotland, including the £8.5m Nairn Hospital

Our dedicated Project Manager will work with you from the initial conception to the completion thus ensuring that the project is of the highest quality, best value and embraces the latest design and technology.

Current guidelines and legislation such as the introduction of BREEAM Assessments mean that construction within the healthcare sector can be challenging.

Our extensive knowledge and experience enables us to manage the challenges in order to deliver first class premises.

Neath Port Talbot Hospital

Interserve Project Services

The new Neath Port Talbot Hospital comprises 277 beds and provides a wide range of services including acute medical emergency admissions, elective surgery, a 24 hour local accident centre, outpatients, children’s, rehabilitation and diagnostic services.

The hospital also provides the opportunity to transform local access to mental health services by offering an acute admissions unit, assessment facilities for geriatric psychiatry and day hospital provision in a stand-alone Mental Health Unit. 

The hospital, a PFI project, was constructed using a steel frame with composite floors and partial brick / composite cladding external envelope. Millard Consulting provided structural and infrastructure design.

The site was formerly a household waste tip and testing indicated the possibility of methane emissions. Although low rates of flow were predicted, reducing with time, the ground floor was fully protected against gas penetration and the 1.2m service void, below ground floor, had passive ventilation with fans to force vent if levels increased above preset limits.

All roads were constructed to allow free flow of gas emissions to ventilation trenches. The foundations were 15 to 20m precast concrete piles, driven to a set in the gravels below the fill, supporting reinforced concrete ground beams and sleeper walls to create the service void in which all drainage runs were located. The ground floor was a beam and block construction, with gas protection below the screed. A large lake was constructed adjacent to the hospital; providing a balancing reservoir and attenuation to the storm flows from the extensive car parking areas.
