Early Stages of Nurse Call Installation

All NHS Hospital projects have to start somewhere, and it doesn’t look pretty at the start and certainly nothing like a Healthcare environment. Much work goes on behind the scenes to ensure quality and at the end of the day patient safety is achieved, and this is organised by the Main Contractor working with the NHS teams and Subcontractors like ourselves. It doesn’t look pretty now, but watch this space for images of the end product when the project completes in the New Year.
