On Site Urgent Treatment Centre at JCUH, Middlesbrough

Working with South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, we have developed a new Urgent Treatment Centre alongside the existing Emergency Department at James Cook University Hospital.

The new facility provides clinical accommodation on the ground floor, working in conjunction with the existing ED to ease pressure on the hospital's busy emergency department and bring care closer to patients' homes. The first floor offers additional staff accommodation, enhancing facilities for the hospital’s dedicated ED team, while the second floor houses essential plant equipment.

The project was delivered in collaboration with contractors Geoffrey Robinson, and the new centre officially opened in April 2024.

Since the modules landing on site, internal partitions have been constructed, and the focus has been on M&E services fit out internally, routing all the services from the second-floor plant room throughout the building . Installation of the internal doors and glazed screens has begun.

External brickwork has been complete, with finishing trims and cills to be complete this month, and the roofing works are also almost complete. There is rainscreen feature cladding to be installed on the front and side elevation, which we’re expecting to begin this month.

The links into the existing hospital have also started, with openings being formed in the existing walls and new modular elements constructed too, we’re expecting final cladding and weatherproofing to be complete this month.

A fantastic logistical undertaking with the crane on site and modules being craned into position.

Below is an incredible video from Geoffrey Robinson showcasing how all 27 modules were craned into place in just three days, despite sub zero temperatures.
