Leading innovation - Gibraltar's first private hospital
ULVERSTON, CUMBRIA –– Bender UK, the UK’s leader in the design and delivery of turnkey healthcare projects, has collaborated with GibMed International Hospital & Specialist Medical Clinic the first private hospital to open its doors in Gibraltar.
This eight-figure project inaugurated its outpatients ward and Imaging Diagnostics Centre in October 2023, including the only MRI machine in Gibraltar. Offering two state-of-the-art operating theatres, endoscopic and radiology diagnostic suites, seven preparation beds, and six inpatient short-stay beds, serving up to 1,000 patients annually, with a dental unit planned to open in the future.
Gareth Brunton, managing director at Bender UK commented: "To collaborate with such a high-standard project such as the GibMed International Hospital has been a privilege for Bender.
"The team have transformed GibMed’s vision into reality with our solutions and those of our partners, bringing cutting-edge healthcare infrastructure to Gibraltar.
“The approach, from initial design to ongoing remote monitoring, demonstrates our commitment to delivering excellence in medical facility projects, even in unique geographical locations.”
A highlight of the project was the installation of Bender Pulse, enabling continuous remote monitoring of the hospital’s infrastructure from Bender UK in Cumbria. It provides real-time alerts and energy insights, ensuring efficiency and quick issue resolution, often without on-site engineers.
Dr David Deardon, Consultant General Surgeon and CEO of GibMed International Hospital commented: “From the first time I spoke with Bender, it was clear that they knew exactly what they were doing and understood what the hospital needed, and that gave me confidence.
“Bender provided us with a one-stop shop, bringing together everything we needed – from theatre lighting equipment, Ultra Clean Ventilation, laminar flow canopies, medical gases installation and theatre service delivery pendants, to technical equipment – monitoring systems, operating tables and patient trolleys.
“This comprehensive approach not only made our job significantly easier but also relieved our local design and construction team from the complexities of hospital-specific design and installation, resulting in what I believe are two amazing operating theatres.”
Bender’s turnkey approach was made possible thanks to its relationship with key partners, including Algas, JCP, Merivaara, and Techtrolec. The company remains committed to GibMed due to a partnership to deliver a five year maintenance programme.
