Project Description:
The innovative design of the Al-Bashir Hospital Emergency Department, crafted by Dar Al Omran, has proficiently addressed several enduring challenges that hindered the efficiency of the hospital. Catering to a staggering 580,000 patients each year, the preceding Al-Bashir emergency facility was constrained with a mere 55-bed capacity. Furthermore, it faced issues such as limited connectivity to the main hospital and inadequate parking facilities, leading to persistent traffic congestion.
Dar Al Omran's meticulous engineering design approach has not only halved the distance between the Emergency Department and the primary hospital, but it has also introduced multiple entrances for both walk-in patients and service access, effectively alleviating congestion. Augmenting its practicality in healthcare, the revamped design now boasts added parking facilities and an instrumental helipad for emergency air transfers.
