De behoefte<\/h3>\n

Het Bedford Hospital bedient een bevolking van ruim 270.000 mensen in Noord- en Midden-Bedfordshire en wilde zijn endoscopiediensten uitbreiden en verbeteren. Jaarlijks passeren ruim 9.000 pati\u00ebnten de endoscopieafdeling, en dit aantal stijgt jaarlijks met 20%. De Trust ondernam een ontwikkeling van de afdeling ter waarde van meerdere miljoenen ponden, waarbij omvangrijke werkzaamheden gepland waren die een risico inhielden op mogelijke verstoring van de diensten die in het ziekenhuis werden aangeboden.<\/p>\n

Het Vanguard-abonnement<\/h3>\n

Om elke mogelijke verstoring van de dienstverlening aan pati\u00ebnten tegen te gaan, heeft Vanguard Healthcare Solutions samen met het ziekenhuis een plan ontwikkeld om een\u00a0mobiele endoscopiesuite<\/a>\u00a0om een totale klinische oplossing voor endoscopische behandeling te leveren, waardoor de trust deze indien nodig als een op zichzelf staande faciliteit kan gebruiken.<\/p>\n

De Vanguard-oplossing<\/h3>\n

Naast een speciaal gebouwde procedurekamer, huisvestte de faciliteit ook een herstelafdeling met vier of acht bedden, een receptie, een wachtkamer en een ontslagruimte. Het bevatte ook een doorvoer-endoscopenreiniger\/-desinfector en een opbergkast voor schone endoscopen nadat ze opnieuw waren verwerkt. Dit zorgde voor een compleet decontaminatietraject voor endoscopen binnen de mobiele faciliteit, waardoor deze zelfvoorzienend kon worden.<\/p>\n

De uitkomst<\/h3>\n

De suite was een jaar lang ter plaatse aanwezig en vormde een aanvulling op de behandelkamers van het ziekenhuis tijdens hun ontwikkelingsproject, waardoor de Trust cruciale diagnostische en therapeutische behandelingen kon leveren aan meer dan 2.500 pati\u00ebnten. Dankzij de extra capaciteit kon de afdeling gedurende de hele ontwikkeling een effici\u00ebnte pati\u00ebntenstroom handhaven.<\/p>\n

Colette Marshall, medisch directeur van het Bedford Hospital, vertelde ons: \u201cDe ontwikkeling van onze endoscopiefaciliteit toont onze toewijding aan het bieden van de beste kwaliteit van zorg aan onze pati\u00ebnten, zowel nu als in de toekomst. Het was voor ons essentieel dat de verbeteringen die op de lange termijn plaatsvonden de toegang van onze pati\u00ebnten tot behandeling op de korte termijn niet zouden be\u00efnvloeden. Dankzij de mobiele Healthcare Space van Vanguard konden we ononderbroken toegang bieden tot endoscopische behandelingen.\u201d<\/p>\n
