North of England PICU
Client – National provider of mental health inpatient services
Location – Lancashire, UK
Project description
This PICU (psychiatric intensive care unit) is designed to support patients with complex care needs in a therapeutic environment.
Working with the interior designer at this national provider of mental health inpatient services, we were instructed to provide curtains and blinds that would contribute to the homely, healing environment of this inpatient ward, while ensuring that there would be no compromise on the safety of service users or staff.
Across the whole 12 bed inpatient unit, we installed bright, uplifting curtains and blinds in bedrooms, communal areas and the tribunal room using inherently fire retardant fabrics. Every curtain and blind is carefully made following anti-ligature design principles.
We also installed SOFTDOORs® from Balco Global for ensuite bedrooms. These innovative doors offer privacy and dignity for patients, while enabling partial observations from staff. They represent minimal weapons and ligature risk.
Claire Royle, Interior Designer said: “Working with Bridge has been a pleasure, with excellent communication and delivery throughout.”
