The design flow, the access to natural light, the use of internal parks, door handles & windows at young people’s height – some of the attention to detail in #ourchildrenshospital.

We were delighted to welcome Minister for Health @CarrollJennifer & Minister of Health for NI @mikenesbittni for a tour of the building & facilities this week.

The visit highlights the importance of cross border collaboration in paediatric healthcare.

A few examples of how #ourchildrenshospital has been designed in consultation with staff:
🔹Outside areas dedicated to staff for much needed space and fresh air
🔹Staff bases with full view of inpatient rooms
🔹Windows which allow staff to observe more than one patient at once.

Ronald McDonald House at the new children’s hospital will be directly connected to the hospital. It will provide accommodation for 52 families. The building is progressing well and recently reached its final height.

We are looking forward to seeing #ourchildrenshospital's outdoor spaces continue to bloom and flourish.

4 of the 12 acres of the new children's hospital are dedicated to outdoor spaces and gardens for patients, their families and staff to enjoy.
