Liverpool Hospital

Lendlease has launched a major $800 million upgrade at Liverpool Hospital, a historic healthcare facility in western Sydney. This project aims to modernise the hospital with expanded emergency and maternity services, outpatient facilities, and a new integrated services building, enhancing access and care for the community.

A key requirement was to optimise the use of a single CT scanner across two adjacent rooms, allowing the hospital to perform CT scans more efficiently without the need for an additional machine. The hospital needed a cost-effective and compliant door solution to enable smooth transitions between scanning and preparation for patients.

Record Doors provided a tailored solution with the Record KOS T3 Telescopic sliding door system. This multi-leaf, non-hermetically closing door system was specifically designed for healthcare applications requiring flexibility and precision. Installed as a dividing wall between two CT rooms, the KOS T3 allows one patient to be scanned in one room while another patient is being prepared in the adjacent room.

• Efficient Use of Space: The KOS T3 door system separates the two rooms, enabling a single CT scanner to serve both spaces. After each scan, the machine slides through the door to the next room, optimising workflow.
• Lead-Lined for Safety: The door panels are lead-lined to protect against radiation, ensuring patient and staff safety during the scanning process.
• Custom Automation: Designed for effortless movement, the doors operate on motion sensors to open and close seamlessly.

Benefits

• Cost Savings: The KOS T3 door system eliminated the need for a second CT machine, delivering significant cost savings to the hospital.
• Enhanced Patient Flow: By allowing continuous scanning in two rooms, patient wait times are reduced, and hospital efficiency is improved.
• Compliance & Safety: With radiation protection built into the design, the door system meets stringent safety standards essential for healthcare environments.

This innovative approach offers a practical, cost-effective, and safe solution, helping Liverpool Hospital deliver improved patient care and operational excellence.
