Renovation of medical facilities requires a special approach due to increased sanitation requirements in wards and corridors and the need to create the most comfortable conditions for patients and staff. That is why this process involves the use of specialized materials that are resistant to moisture, are resistant to disinfection and guarantee a long service life. Other requirements for planning, sound insulation, fire safety in the clinic, etc. are also important.   

What to consider when renovating hospitals

To carry out such work, you need to pay attention to the selection of materials. They must be smooth on the surface, withstand mechanical damage and the effects of chemicals to ensure sterility. In rooms with high traffic - such as operating rooms, procedure rooms, reception rooms, walls are most often decorated with ceramic tiles or other similar materials. It is extremely important for such work to purchase certified products that do not cause allergies and do not emit harmful substances.

Other features of repairs in hospitals and outpatient clinics include:

• ensuring fire safety;
• optimal location of medical equipment in offices;
• soundproofing and remoteness of important equipment from patient areas.

Before starting work, it is important to coordinate the necessary documentation with the relevant authorities. The reconstruction process itself is carried out in a clear sequence, taking into account the work schedule of the medical institution. To speed up the repair, you can involve several teams of workers at once, practice a rotating work schedule.
