Nuffield Health has appointed Poole-based construction company, Stepnell, to carry out a £1.2 million refurbishment programme at the Nuffield Health Bournemouth Hospital.
The phased programme will include the refurbishment of ground floor consulting rooms, corridors, and reception and ancillary spaces; first-floor corridors and bedrooms, and second floor offices, corridors, and theatre recovery areas.
Stepnell will also undertake the enabling and completion work for the installation by Siemens of a cardiac catheter laboratory.
The Stepnell team – based locally in Blandford Road, Poole – has just started work on the refurbishment programme, designed by Kendall Kingscott, and set for completion in October this year. Stepnell has previously completed a number of projects for Nuffield Health, including a £2.2 m refurbishment scheme at the Wessex Hospital near Eastleigh in Hampshire.
Contracts manager, Karl Nottage (pictured), says: “Our team has an extensive track record in the healthcare sector, and wide experience of delivering high quality results working in occupied, live environments such as hospitals.”
