- The Missing Middle | MAAP Architects
“Mental illness is more ubiquitous than cancer. How can we help the ‘missing middle’? People with mental illness struggle to find the quality of care they deserve. But there’s hope and a pathway for progress.” - Prof. Patrick McGorry 10 January 2020 The Missing Middle “Mental illness is more ubiquitous than cancer. How can we help the ‘missing middle’? People with mental illness struggle to find the quality of care they deserve. But there’s hope and a pathway for progress.” - Prof. Patrick McGorry MAAP were commissioned by Victorian Health and Human Services Building Authority (VHHSBA) to provide analysis, mapping, and learnings from case studies into the planning and development of mental health facilities in Victoria and to inform VHHSBA of opportunities for improvement in their current service model. The investigation of these inquiries originates from a workshop held as VHHSBA on th 21st August 2019 to explore ideas for the provision and location of new infrastructure an subsequent discussion based on a review of initial findings. Despite the policy of de-institutionalisation, which became a primary aspiration in Europe and North America in the 1970s and 1980s, and by Australia during 1990s and early 2000s, the move to provide community based services, the transfer of the majority of inpatient beds to mainstream (somatic) hospital sites has simply re-created the institution in another setting. Furthermore, as new facilities have been progressively added to extant hospital estates they have taken up valuable space which would have been more productively utilised for hospital expansion and replacement. The preference for single storey mental health facilities which eventually became “policy” in 2000s and the enhanced space standards that increased the size of the footprint required has resulted in significant parts of a hospital campus being compromised by a service which could be argued is better located elsewhere i.e. closer to the population it serves (“right place, right time”) or in a location at the edge of a hospital campus facing the community it serves. One of the reasons given for “mainstreaming” was that it de-stigmatised mental health services by putting them on a general somatic hospital campus and presumably “normalising” them in a medical/clinical setting. A different philosophy suggested in the early days of de-institutionalisation was that by locating mental health services visibly in a normal street or suburb connected them with their community and could be identified as an important investment in their health. De-stigmatisation by familiarity. Furthermore by sharing part of the new investment with the local population by inviting them to access and use the facilities for community activities this would help them break down the barriers and provide a context for better education. Thirty years ago this may have been a stretch too far but in 2020 perhaps the time is right for another try? A number of MAAP projects have included activity centres that provide out of hours access for the surrounding community and encourage participation in the running or the maintenance of the facilities. Caretaking, gardening, organising events with other institutions such as schools or sports clubs. Read the full report here.

- Roker and Mowbray Dementia Care Centre | MAAP Architects
Location Monkwearmouth, Sunderland, UK Client Northumberland, Tyne & Wear NHS Foundation Trust Role Architect, Masterplanner, Health Planner, Interior Designer, Landscape Architect Year 2013 Value £9m Contact Mungo Smith MAAP were commissioned to design a new purpose built dementia care centre at Monkwearmouth Hospital in Sunderland that would form part of a dedicated dementia care campus. The project provides two single-sex assessment and treatment wards called Roker and Mowbray, (making reference to the local landmarks), each containing 10 en-suite bedrooms, with an additional 4 rooms accommodated centrally between these wards, known as a ‘swing-zone’. A range of additional shared accommodation for patients, staff and visitors provides a ‘front-of-house’ component. The design of the facility aims to encapsulate the latest findings in dementia-related research. Consultation was undertaken with Stirling University Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) which facilitates world-leading consultancy and research into dementia care and the project was awarded gold standard certification in 2013. Roker and Mowbray Dementia Care Centre This unit has achieved truly remarkable levels of dementia friendliness within the constraints of normal NHS mental health requirements. It is without doubt one of the best NHS efforts at dementia friendly design that we have seen. There are a host of little details that all add up to creating a genuinely dementia friendly environment. Emeritus Professor Mary Marshall Director, Dementia Services Development Centre, University of Sterling Jacaranda Place Clock View Glenside Health Campus See All › Related Projects The internal layout is critically important for the success of the project and ward plans have been kept as wide and spacious as possible. This allows staff to effectively observe and engage patients and maximises space for the patient group. The design provides adaptable, open-plan living spaces linked with more intimate, cosy areas for activities and privacy. Each ward is planned around a landscaped courtyard giving patients direct and free access to safe and secure gardens.

Royal North Shore Hospital Healthcare facilities must fit comfortably into the urban and social fabric of communities, respecting the urban design tenets that underpin successful public buildings. We have a natural empathy for the collaborative, consultative approach that must be adopted when working on large community projects. Bob Willis Director, Medical Architecture Shoalhaven Hospital Multi-Deck Carpark The Prince Charles Hospital Glenside Health Campus See All › Related Projects The steeply sloping topography makes the RNSH campus difficult to access and presented a key challenge for the masterplan. MAAP's three dimensional development framework has successfully supported the delivery of 150,000 sqm of new acute facilities and a further 200,000 sqm of complementary development in a clearly organised urban structure. The masterplan has placed an emphasis on integrating clinical, research and education services and provision of versatile future-ready facilities and amenities capable of attracting and retaining the best people. The urban design frames existing heritage buildings to create a campus heart that reinforces the site's sense of identity with legible way-finding to draw in the community, improved connections to transport and support equitable access to clinical services and high quality public open space.
