IHP successfully hands over the new build phase of Blackpool CCU and ED

17th August 2022

Integrated Health Projects has successfully handed over the new build phase of Blackpool’s Critical Care Unit and Emergency Department to Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

The proposed scheme is the creation of a new state-of-the-art CCU new build extension and a new remodelled Emergency Department.

The new build 3-storey extension will provide a Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) Department at Level 0, CCU supporting accommodation at Level 1 and a 16 bed CCU at Level 2 and a roof top plant room at level 3.

The reconfiguration of the Ground Floor Emergency Department over 4 phases will include a courtyard infill and refurbishment of existing department helping to create a new Majors, RAT, Triage and Resus areas. This will help to improve clinical flow and staff efficiencies. The scheme is due to complete in December 2023.

We are extremely proud of our ongoing relationship with the Trust at Blackpool Victoria Hospital and the handing over of the new CCU creates a landmark step in the great relationship that IHP have with the Trust here at Blackpool.
"We now look forward to the redevelopment of the existing Emergency department over the next 12 months helping to improve the current services for both patients and staff.
