Changes in lifestyle and demographics all over the world demand new standards for healthcare facilities and services. With new hospital facilities taking anything up to 15 years from concept to completion, anticipating future needs is vital. Combining a local presence in 35 countries with proven experience in developing world class healthcare facilities enables Ramboll to recognise and address these trends in our advanced engineering and consultancy solutions.
Catering for long term and changing needs
Healthcare needs are changing. For example, over the next 50 years, people over 60 years of age are forecasted to surpass those under the age of 14, creating a shift in priority from transferable to non-transferable diseases, including cancers, diabetes and heart disease as well as injuries.
In developing healthcare facilities that are equipped to deal with long term and changing requirements, Ramboll’s engineering designs integrate flexibility. This ensures that facilities can accommodate changes in the climate from flooding, reconfiguration for technological plant advancement, or evolving patient needs.
Engineering and consultancy expertise for hospitals, care centres and laboratories
Ramboll is involved with some of the world’s cutting edge healthcare facilities. Through this experience and a knowledge base that spans technology sectors including science and laboratories and within developed and less developed countries, our teams deliver real insight into the solutions we design.
With a presence in over 35 countries, Ramboll has a strong understanding of the local context in which a healthcare facility is being developed and combines this with extensive experience from around the world.
Our holistic service covers management and client consultancy that includes project management, strategies for operation and change management, communication policy, engineering, BIM (Building Information Modelling) Level 2 and procurement as well as IT solutions.
This extensive multidisciplinary service enables us to provide our healthcare clients with creative and innovative solutions to meet diverse needs. Working with local and national government departments, the private sector and building contractors, our experience includes designing new and refurbishing existing healthcare facilities from major hospitals, community care facilities to specialist care centres.
Patient-centric solutions
Ramboll experts understand that a patient-centric approach to a healthcare facility’s design has a direct effect on delivering excellent patient care. For example, we focus on design that places nurse’s stations in direct line of sight to a hospital’s bays and wards. With healthcare budgets under constant strain, we pride ourselves on designing insightful solutions that deliver high-quality and efficient care.Ramboll’s comprehensive healthcare competences
