BHI Parkside Medical
Healthcare centre for Bromsgrove
Barrie Beard Ltd were involved in the electrical and mechanical design and installation of this new state of the art healthcare facility in Bromsgrove. The lighting installed is environmentally friendly using high efficiency lighting throughout the building. We installed 400 metres of anti-microbial Profila/Compact data cable trunking throughout, to manage the power and data cabling requirements. This trunking is designed specifically for use in environments such as hospital, schools and nursing homes. The anti-microbial solution incorporates silver ion technology.
BHI Parkside is the very best facility of its kind in the country, the building's main function is to provide unmatched facilities for two GP practices. Light and airy reception areas lead to modern consulting facilities areas. On the top floor there are additional consulting areas: the Birmingham University Medical Teaching Unit, practice managerial areas and ultra-modern conference and seminar facilities. The ground floor has multi-purpose clinic areas where the practices will run specialised chronic disease management clinics. There is also a large health promotion room and operating facilities far in advance of those normally seen in general practice.
The ground floor clinics have also been designed so that, if necessary, in pandemic situations, they can provide a separate unit to assess patients.
This landmark building and development on Market Street Bromsgrove has transformed the town and is an impressive start to Bromsgrove's town centre regeneration programme.
