Healthcare

We have the most experienced consultancy team in the UK for healthcare acoustics.

We are recognised as a leading authority and were appointed lead authors of the NHS acoustic design guide, HTM08-01 and are therefore best placed to advise on its implementation:  what needs to be done and, equally important, what can be left out.  We can advise you on the best way to satisfy its needs with an economic construction.

We have been consultants to over 20 major PFI hospital projects, as well as many LIFT & ProCure21 community hospitals and clinics.   Our experience is second to none. Our reputation is built on our ability to achieve appropriate acoustics in balance with the project's other constraints & requirements.

We will work with you to integrate acoustic performance into your project from the start. We have detailed knowledge of the effect that other disciplines can have on acoustics, and will help you make fundamental project decisions to minimise compromise, shortfalls, costs and risks.

We understand that clinical functionality sometimes takes precedence over acoustic performance, and we promise not to get touchy if an informed decision has been made.

Our tailored acoustic strategy documents will clearly explain the acoustic aspects of each project, and set out the agreed requirements. Our advice is clear, pragmatic and practical. Whether you have a noisy site and need to naturally ventilate, are driven by the allowable width of your partitions, or simply have to achieve the BREEAM credits, we can help.
