Appointed by the University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS), LST successfully transformed a vacant space into a new urology day unit.

Over a six-month period, LST fitted out an area above the Southampton General Hospital’s loading bay, creating clinical and treatment rooms specifically for urology outpatients. The new facility includes waiting areas, a reception, office space, and a staff room. Additionally, the day unit boasts a state-of-the-art lithotripsy suite equipped with advanced machinery and technology for treating kidney stones.

The project required modifications to the existing offices to create a new corridor entrance and reduce space. New partition walls were erected, and each room was equipped with air conditioning, bespoke furniture, and integrated plumbing systems (IPS).

As part of the enabling works, a new air handling unit, along with its supporting steelwork, was installed on the building’s roof using a crane. The existing roof felt and insulation were also removed during this process.
