Project update! 🏗️🏥 There's been a lot of activity happening on site in Berwick this week as our team is busy delivering the new #BerwickHospital! X9 Rooftop PODs - which have been manufactured in our Cramlington-based factory - are being transported, delivered and lifted on site into their respective positions onto the roof of the new Hospital. 7 of the PODs are now in position, with the last 2 to be lifted later today. This marks a significant milestone for all involved, and we're looking forward to the next stage of the project which will focus on installation of the offsite components. Berwick Hospital will be complete in Summer 2025, and once operational, will provide a range of new services that will benefit the local community and surrounding areas including endoscopy, a maternity ward and a GP practice. We've designed a modern facility that will not only improve patient care but also staff experience as well. We're looking forward to sharing further project updates with you very soon!🙌 Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust #Berwick #BerwickHospital #NHS #NHSEstate #Healthcare #Healthcarefacility #OffsiteConstruction

We're delighted to say that we have received not one, but two silver accreditations for sustainability work around the trust and within our emergency department. The Investors in the Environment is a prestigious recognition awarded to organisations demonstrating exceptional commitment to improving their sustainability efforts and show evidence of plans to continue this work. Additionally, our emergency department was awarded with the GreenED accreditation by the Royal College of Emergency Medicine for demonstrating its ability to make positive and sustainable changes in a resource-heavy emergency department. These are incredible achievements that reflect the teams' commitment to reaching the target of Net Zero Northumbria by 2040. Well done all 👏 https://orlo.uk/mRccT
