STRENGTHENING OUTCOMES FOR PATIENTS AND STAFF
The completed installation delivers a trauma theatre designed for resilience, reliability, and future readiness. Dual power supplies, UPS backup, and IPS protection provide a robust infrastructure capable of supporting emergency care in the most demanding conditions.
For clinical teams, the new systems ensure continuity of service and greater control over the theatre environment. For patients, the installation provides peace of mind that surgical procedures are supported by safe and dependable systems.
From an estates’ perspective, the project has delivered a compliant, maintainable installation with clear labelling, separated circuits, and detailed documentation. These features simplify maintenance, improve safety, and support long-term planning.
Tony Marsh, Director of Estate and Facilities, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to have completed a full refresh of our Trauma Theatre, incorporating a state-of-the-art Ultra Clean Ventilation (UCV) system and a comprehensive modern refit. This investment reflects our ongoing commitment to providing the highest standards of care in a safe, efficient, and future-ready environment.”
PREPARING FOR FUTURE THEATRE UPGRADES
The trauma theatre marks the first step in the wider refurbishment of Milton Keynes University Hospital’s Phase 1 theatre suite. Its successful delivery demonstrates an ability to manage complex installations in sensitive environments, delivering quality outcomes under pressure.
This project has established a clear model for future works within the hospital’s theatre upgrade programme. With compliant systems, collaborative delivery, and robust planning, the foundation is in place for future installations to meet the same high standards.
