Children’s Health Ireland and National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Discussion
9:30 am
Mr. Phelim Devine:
The concern related to 11 theatres. I am delighted to say that we have, with our design team, which was responsible for the design of the ventilation in the theatres, done a significant amount of computer modelling and physical testing. We now have a proposed solution set out in a comprehensive report that demonstrates that the theatres will be in full compliance with the guidance, which is the National Health Service, NHS, health technical memorandum, HTM.
