Haematology, Queen Elizabeth Hospital

PHd worked closely with the Trust’s clinical team and broader stakeholders to design and deliver the £3.4m refurbishment of the former Trust Headquarters building to create a new Centre for Clinical Haematology (CCH) at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust.

The refurbished facility combines state-of-the-art clinical facilities for clinical innovation and research with the best care and support for leukaemia patients.

The works involved significant refurbishment and remodelling of the existing space, effectively doubling the usable footprint. This has provided much-needed additional clinical accommodation for Outpatient and Day Treatment services. The enhancements include 24 additional chairs for infusion and apheresis treatment, extra side rooms, a dedicated phlebotomy area, and clinical support facilities. These improvements have significantly boosted CCH’s capacity, allowing for ground-breaking internationally significant haemato-oncology programmes, outpatient delivery of stem cell transplants and complex haemato-oncology care, and an increase in the scale and breadth of its clinical trial capacity.
