Derriford Care Centre

• Healthcare

A new stand-alone care facility that forms part of the North West Quadrant site at Derriford Hospital. The scope and speciality of clinical care to be delivered is likely to be orthopedic, but the design and clinical content of spaces means the new building will not be limited to a single speciality. The new building will combine diagnostic, operating theatres, consulting and inpatient spaces into one building meaning it can function in its own right while remaining part of the main hospital care setting. Organised over three levels and negotiating a steeply sloping site, the new building is set to offer a radical change in community healthcare provision for the area.
