  • Waikato Adult Mental Health Facility | MAAP Architects

    Location Waikato, New Zealand Client Waikato District Health Board Role Architect, Masterplanner, Health Planner Year 2019 Value $80m Contact Mungo Smith The new acute mental health facility for Waikato DHB catchment will accommodate up to seventy-four inpatients in four units arranged in two pairs across a single level. The proposed site, on a prominent ridge in the north east part of the hospital campus commands extensive views over the city, parklands, and the Waikato River. Waikato Adult Mental Health Facility Jacaranda Place Clock View Glenside Health Campus See All › Related Projects The project has placed a strong emphasis on a kaupapa Maori design process to deliver tangible outcomes that will aide and support the health and well-being of Maori service users as well as other community members. The concept has been developed with the narrative of ‘healing waters’ as a key driver which has helped describe the relationship with the land, and the form of the building. Internally the layout provides a high degree of flexibility based on modularity and a looped circulation system. Inpatients units are arranged along the building perimeter to take advantage of the site's striking ridgeline views which can also be enjoyed from the emergency assessment and admission suites, staff areas, and spaces accessible to the wider community at the lower entry level.

  • The Well Placed Hospital | MAAP Architects

    We want to move future acute hospitals back into their town centres, make them smaller, (much) more convivial and better integrated with civic life and the other elements of health and social care. 19 January 2022 The Well Placed Hospital We want to move future acute hospitals back into their town centres, make them smaller, (much) more convivial and better integrated with civic life and the other elements of health and social care. The migration of the hospital from the town centre to a large self-contained campus hospital under one roof on the edge of town may have made sense in the planning frameworks of the last century, but that period may now be over? The hospital will usually be the largest or second largest employer in the locality and often the largest single revenue budget. It leaves a large carbon footprint and provokes a large number of car journeys. The economic power of the hospital does not invigorate the local economy as much as it could. The NHS tradition has been for major national supply contracts which shut out smaller local providers. The peripheralisation of the hospital has had other unintended consequences. It has allowed the gap between health and social care to widen (both figuratively and in actual distance.) It has also driven up the fixed costs of hospital care – the NHS builds its own roads, car parks, shops, etc., which already exist in the town. There is a large and growing backlog of maintenance costs for the NHS estate. Major capital investment is now planned. Rather than double down on sprawling out of town general hospital sites, we see an opportunity for English towns to use this investment as the foundation for bringing the hospital back into the centre of civic life. Move it and change it. Good for hospital, good for town. This submission considers hospital estates across England and leads to a worked example for a different local acute hospital set in a very different context. Three interlocking ideas set this context and sit under the simple assertion that if the Local Authority and NHS combine their capital investments and the operational management of their assets, then greater social gain is achieved and better value for money. The three ideas are: Bring the hospital back from the edge of town to the town centre. Tackle the interface between acute hospital and social care head-on by restructuring both. Blur the dividing lines between different categories of health and social care staff. Read the full report here.

  • Clock View Hospital recognised for enduring value | MAAP Architects

    Clock View Hospital has won the Healthcare category at the Architecture Today Awards 2022. 3 March 2023 Clock View Hospital recognised for enduring value Clock View Hospital has won the Healthcare category at the Architecture Today Awards 2022. The Architecture Today Awards were created specifically to draw attention to projects that demonstrate timelessness and ongoing design excellence. Only considering projects that have been in use for at least three years, but looking for projects that have been around for much longer than that, they recognise architecture that demonstrates an ongoing record of delivering on environmental, functional, community and cultural promises. In his adjudicating remarks, RIBA President Simon Allford described the project as on that "connects well with its neighbours, presenting a welcoming white-yet-warm domestic architecture that has an appropriate civic presence that both welcomes visitors and helps to calm residents. Its well planted gardens have matured beautifully and offer delight to all who pass through and by.” Peter Bishop, the former director of Design for London, said that “if any form of architecture can transform the quality of life then it is in the medical sphere. The judges were particularly impressed by the attention given to the experience of friends and relatives visiting the hospital. The step change from the previous building was remarkable. This is the architecture of dignity and humanism.” Recognition of projects designed for flexibility and adaptability, that respond to changing models of care, and that have an enduring legacy in the wellbeing of both patients and staff, is a very welcome development in the awards prgram for the AEC industry.

  • Roseberry Park | MAAP Architects

    Location Middlesbrough, UK Client Laing O’Rourke | Tees, Esk & Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust Role Architect, Masterplanner, Interior Design Year 2010 Value £75m Contact Mungo Smith Roseberry Park is a 312-bed inpatient mental health complex providing Adult, Older Adult and Forensic (including Learning Disabilities) Mental Health Services. A sensitive interpretation of the Trust’s brief and aspirations reflected the requirements of a modern adult mental health service and workforce. Roseberry Park We were particularly impressed by the way the architects had manipulated the design to reduce its significant bulk into recognisably human scaled spaces. The integration of the landscape into the design is particularly well handled. RIBA Northern Network Awards Panel Jacaranda Place Clock View Glenside Health Campus See All › Related Projects The complex is set within a landscape structure which supports both underlying roles of the institution: therapeutic care and security. The therapeutic benefits of contact with nature are fully utilised with buildings and wards intimately entwined around a series of gardens and courtyards where each patient has close, generous and free access to the outdoors. Separate zones for Adult and Forensic services were achieved through a series of individual units providing services for specific groups of users that share a main entrance and a number of support facilities. Single loaded corridors around courtyards allowed for ‘swing beds’ to be allocated to different units to reflect gender/capacity requirements.
