Improving the healthcare provision in Welwyn Garden City and the surrounding areas, the new QEII Hospital has been designed as a four-storey facility, which will house 8,542 square metre clinical and community space. Upon completion, the new QEII healthcare facility will provide a local AE, outpatient, diagnostic and therapy services.
Aspiring for BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating, the sustainable design features of the facility include solar panels, a green roof, air source heat pumps, and the use of natural ventilation to reduce energy consumption.
The new facility is being constructed adjacent to the existing operational QEII Hospital. The construction work has started on the site in April 2013, and is scheduled to complete in spring 2015.
