A focus on daylighting and creating functional spaces while ensuring patient privacy has been the key driver in fitting out a major healthcare faciity in Abu Dhabi, says Summertown Interiors.

Summertown Interiors, a leading fit-out contractor specialising in green interiors in the UAE, has completed the new Mediclinic Dialysis Department at Airport Road Hospital in Abu Dhabi.

The project, which took 12 weeks to finalise, was designed to allow for an open, functional space suitably arranged to accommodate both equipment and patients.

A key element was to ensure that plenty of natural light could enter, while still maintaining the privacy of patients, says a spokeswoman for Summertown Interiors.

In addition to the installation of equipment in new treatment bays and clinical support areas to accommodate medical procedures, the fit-out also included a medication preparation room, a general storage unit, and housekeeping and dirty utility.

Sarah Flowerday, the business development manager (healthcare), says: “We are delighted to have worked on such a prestigious project – a world-class, healthcare facility in the heart of the capital. We look forward to a continued working relationship with Mediclinic.”

For 20 years, Summertown Interiors has been among the UAE’s leading and most sustainable contractors, offering superior quality interior fit-out solutions. Reputed for its green expertise and exceptional client service, the company specialises in commercial, healthcare, and education projects for global Fortune 500 companies, government authorities and local businesses.

Summertown Interiors was the first fit-out contractor to occupy Leed (Leadership in Energy and environmental Design) Gold-certified interiors in the UAE, and has also been awarded the Leed Gold certification for its existing building: operations and maintenance (Leed Ebom). All its projects are executed in accordance with the internationally-recognised ISO 9001:2008 quality management system.
