Healthcare Estates Exhibition a Success!

ModuleCo Ltd (formerly PKL Healthcare) recently attended a successful two days at this years Healthcare Estates Conference and Exhibition in Harrogate. ModuleCo exhibited to promote their healthcare modular buildings along side part of the foodservice division (Kitchen FM) of associate company PKL Group (UK) Ltd.

Kitchen FM allows a hospital to have a fully functional and maintained catering capability without the need for capital spend. Regular servicing, routine & emergency maintenance and technical support are all included in the Kitchen FM contract. It gives the hospital peace of mind of knowing exactly how much their catering facilities will cost each month and is flexible enough to be expanded or reduced at any time.

Steve Tilley, ModuleCo's Sales Manager, commented, "We had a tremendous two days. Not only do you meet new contacts, it is a great opportunity to catch up with previous clients and contacts to let them know about our recently completed healthcare modular building projects."

ModuleCo will be exhibiting again at next years Healthcare Estates Conference and Exhibition.

ModuleCo Ltd Build Modular Mortuary Facility

At the beginning of this year, ModuleCo (formerly PKL Healthcare) completed their first modular mortuary project. The 380m2 facility is on hire for 1-year to Hull City Council providing temporary accommodation whilst the permanent mortuary is relocated. The design, installation and commissioning was completed in just 11-weeks with the prime equipment being transferred from the existing mortuary over a weekend, keeping the disruption of service to a minimum.

The new temporary mortuary includes refrigerated storage for 28 bodies and forensic storage for 8. The autopsy room has 5 autopsy tables and an isolation autopsy area. These areas are supported by offices, public viewing area, and staff facilities.

The mortuary manager commented: "We have moved into a temporary mortuary facility designed and built by ModuleCo. As the manager of this facility, I have no hesitation in complimenting ModuleCo on a job well done."

Official Opening of Endospopy Unit for Leeds Teaching Hospital

This 33 week programme delivered by ModuleCo will have its official opeing tomorrow. The new Endospopy Unit comprises four Endospopy treatment rooms, Endospopy cleaning rooms, and four examination consultant rooms. Stage 1 and stage 2 recovery areas, patient preparation, reception, waiting area. Also a seminar teaching room that connects to the treatment rooms for training purposes.

ModuleCo utilised the site space to enable the facility to be completed. The facility was craned into a confined courtyard area - by one of the biggest cranes in the country and then linked to two sides of the hospital covering nearly the whole diameter of the courtyard area.

The project required a construction of steel support framework between two parts of the existing hospital within a courtyard area followed by transporting the facility units to sit onto the steel support framework via an occupied part of the hospital with a crane.
