Steel extension for Liverpool children’s hospital

Posted on by in News

The steel frame for a new facility at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool is quickly taking shape.

The state-of-the-art Surgical Neonatal Intensive Care Unit will be the first of its kind in the UK, providing family integrated care and a safer service for babies. It will feature 22 neonatal cots and 18 individual family rooms.

On the ground floor of the hospital’s extension, there will be a Same Day Emergency Care Centre, which will accommodate paediatricians, clinicians, and primary care and family support workers. This area will be a 24-bed unit with four rooms for urgent care consultations.

Morgan Sindall, Managing Director in the North, Simon Arnott, said: “Alder Hey Hospital has been an invaluable asset to the local communities in Liverpool and the wider North West region for over 100 years.

Its dedication to improving the lives of young people with health difficulties and their families is unmatched. It is therefore an immense privilege for us to play a part in the next stage of the hospital’s history.”

The steel frame is being fabricated, supplied and erected by Leach Structural Steelwork.

The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
