Enhancing surgical workflow in the OR

Alder Hey in the Park has partnered with Sony’s Healthcare Solutions team to build a hospital-wide IP video network, allowing High Definition surgical footage to be viewed by surgeons and students anywhere on campus.

One of the world’s most technologically advanced children’s hospitals, Alder Hey in the Park has partnered with Sony’s Healthcare Solutions team to build a powerful and easy-to-use, hospital-wide IP video network. High Definition surgical footage can be patched instantly to screens in Alder Hey’s state-of-the-art integrated operating rooms – or shared with surgeons and students anywhere on campus.

Alder Hey in the Park is one of the world’s newest and most technologically innovative teaching hospitals dedicated specifically to the treatment and care of children. Located on the outskirts of Liverpool in the North West of England, the dramatically styled £300m paediatric facility opened its doors in 2015 after a two-year construction project that was funded by the NHS and the Alder Hey Children’s Charity. 

Natural daylight, relaxing open spaces and child-friendly design are all hallmarks of Europe’s only hospital in a park that cares for patients from the UK and overseas. Covering over 50,000 square metres, Alder Hey has 270 beds including 48 critical care beds for patients in the ICU, HDU and burns ward. In total, the hospital currently takes care of around 275,000 young people and their families every year.
