Tilbury Douglas has successfully completed the construction of Nottingham Healthcare’s mental health facilities at Tall Trees and the Glade at Highbury Hospital
Tall Trees is an existing two-storey building providing office accommodation, meeting rooms, and breakout areas for the Trust’s mental health crisis teams.
The Glade is a refurbishment and new build extension to provide a new mental healthcare outpatient facility. Works also include a new fenced garden for service users.
The new mental health facilities will result in significant improvements in patient care
Commenting on the completion of the new mental health facilities, Simon Butler, regional building managing director, said: “It is great to see the completion of our projects at Nottinghamshire Healthcare facilities, which will result in significant improvements in the care for its patients.”
The handover comes shortly after the first anniversary of Sherwood Oaks Hospital
The handover of the two mental health facilities marks the first anniversary of Sherwood Oaks Hospital.
Spread across three blocks, two of which house four wards and one comprising an administration area, the new site provides modern healthcare facilities for the care of approximately 70 patients.
The Sherwood Oaks project generated £6.5m of social value investment back into the community, with particular emphasis on skills and opportunities.
Alongside work placements and employment for local people, the project team engaged local businesses, with 64% of the supply chain being sourced locally.
