Healthcare furniture at Pershore Cottage Hospital

The furniture designs feature smooth lines and handle cut-outs within drawer units, eliminating sharp corners and protruding knobs or handles, while all wardrobe doors have piano hinged shelving rather than hanging rails. Patient safety and protection has been paramount in the design of the furniture.

The Pershore Cottage Hospital scheme provides around 4,000 sq. m. of accommodation over three floors. The ground floor medical centre includes 21 consulting rooms and a dispensary. The first floor hospital provides in-patient beds in either four bedded wards or single rooms. All have ensuite facilities. On the second floor there is a National Health Dental surgery and office space for school nurses, health visitors and other community workers.

The project is a joint venture between Wychavon District Council and South Worcestershire Primary Care Trust. The contractor was Ashford Construction of Coleshill, Birmingham.

The fitted healthcare furniture we supply is manufactured at our factory in Broadstairs, Kent. We provide specialist, HTM 63 and HTM 71 compliant furniture and storage units, specialising in the healthcare and hospital market. We have installed fitted healthcare furniture to many UK hospitals, health centres, clinics and GP surgeries, including Guys & St. Thomas Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital, North Middlesex University Hospital and Northwick Park Hospital. Architects and Contractors rely on us because they know we are well established and professional and our durable furniture is manufactured in Britain with craftsmanship and professionalism. We also install our furniture into a facility, so there is no need to ensure a contractor has installation instructions.
