ST. JAMES’S HOSPITAL

Leading an extensive project at Ireland’s largest acute service hospitals, PJ Hegarty was tasked with overseeing building works on hospitals 1 and 7 at the Dublin campus. The project in Hospital 1 involved installing a state-of-the-art PET/CT scan facility on the ground floor. Building works included demolition, alterations and fit-out, including the installation of a specialised 25mm thick lead lining system to the PET scan walls and ceilings. The project was completed with minimal disruption — all of Hospital 1’s upper levels were fully functional during the building works.

We also ensured that there was no disruption of services during our construction work on Hospital 7. The task was to build a 13-bed ward on the first floor, while the adjacent ward block and the ground floor restaurant continued services as normal.

The Hospital 7 building work included demolition, alterations and full fit-out including mechanical and electrical installations, while we made sure that our whole process complied with newly introduced HSE infection control procedures in a live hospital environment.
