  • Efficient lighting and a pleasant atmosphere at St.Gallen Cantonal Hospital

    Efficient lighting and a pleasant atmosphere at St.Gallen Cantonal Hospital

    With the recently opened Building 7 A, the St.Gallen Cantonal Hospital not only wants to present itself with a striking face, but also organise efficient and cost-effective processes. According to a press release, the design aims to support patients in the recovery process and offer employees an efficient and pleasant working environment. This also includes the lighting design, which utilises lights from the Tuggen-based company Tulux.

    Passageways have been equipped with 4000 metres of LED strip lighting. Treatment and examination rooms, as well as other workspaces, are illuminated by double diffuser luminaires whose 30×30 centimetre modules can be added to. The SPIN 2 ceiling light was used to create a cosy atmosphere in the waiting and lounge areas. In the restaurant area, spherical lamps attached to pendants provide light. Warm light was used for corridors and lounges, while neutral white 4000K light was used for workspaces and medical areas.

    “The collaboration with Tulux on this major project was excellent.” “Professional and speedy” is how the cooperation is rated in the press release.

  • Opening date announced for new building of Baden Cantonal Hospital

    Opening date announced for new building of Baden Cantonal Hospital

    Baden Cantonal Hospital(KSB) has announced the opening date for its new building. According to a press release, the new KSB will officially open on Tuesday, 25 February 2025, with the main move taking place the following weekend. The new building took six and a half years to complete. With a usable area of 76,215 square metres, it will offer around 30 percent more space than the building in which the KSB has been housed since 1978.

    The move will be completed in five days. A total of 4571 cubic metres of medical technology and other goods will be moved, according to the KSB press release. This corresponds to the load of 76 lorries of 40 tonnes each. The project is divided into three phases, according to the press release. In the preliminary move, material will be moved so that the doctors and nurses in the new building can start work immediately. During the main move, the intensive care unit, the monitoring ward, neonatology and the emergency department will take priority. Hospital operations will continue as normal.

    The new building will actually be ready sooner. But the KSB management deliberately chose February as the date for the move. “Theoretically, the new building would be ready for occupation as early as next autumn,” KSB CEO Adrian Schmitter is quoted as saying. However, moving before the autumn holidays would have been tight. This is because the building still has to undergo numerous complex tests beforehand. In addition, all operating licences must be obtained.

    As the KSB is always very busy between October and January and many patients with infectious diseases are treated during the flu epidemics, it was decided to use the time window with fewer patients from the end of February for the move. Details on the new KSB building can be found in KSB magazine 02-2024.

  • Location found for Rorschach outpatient centre

    Location found for Rorschach outpatient centre

    The town of Rorschach, the canton of St.Gallen and the Spitalanlagegesellschaft des Kantonsspitals St.Gallen have reached an agreement on the construction of a new outpatient centre. After a long search, a suitable property has now been found. According to a press release, the complex in the Neuseeland/Rorschacherberg area – directly on the border with Rorschach – will be fully operational from the end of 2024. Until then, outpatient service providers with a focus on oncology outpatient clinics, gastroenterology and cardiology will be relocated to the new site. Outpatient consultations will also be offered by the Clinics for General, Visceral, Endocrine and Transplant Surgery, Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Urology and the Clinic for Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery.

    As there would be insufficient space for haemodialysis at the new outpatient clinic, the decision-makers have decided to integrate these treatments into the haemodialysis unit at the St.Gallen site. According to the press release, this will take place by the end of the first quarter of 2024.

    The Radiology Network of the Clinic for Radiology and Nuclear Medicine at St.Gallen Cantonal Hospital in Rorschach offers a comprehensive range of radiological diagnostic services at the Regatron Centre. In addition to the existing MR and PET-CT examinations, computerised tomography and fully digital conventional X-ray diagnostics are now also offered.

    The Cantonal Hospital of St.Gallen is currently still using the property of the former Rorschach Hospital. The use of this building from 2025 is still open and is still being discussed by the canton, the town of Rorschach and the hospital investment company of the cantonal hospital.

  • Development of the area of the former canton hospital

    Development of the area of the former canton hospital

    The area to be built is only a few minutes' walk from Zug's old town and has excellent development potential, writes the building construction department of the canton of Zug in a message. There is a legally valid development plan for the area. This includes various construction areas with public uses, gastronomy and hotel uses, apartments and old-age living. In a two-stage competition process, a suitable team of investors, operators and planners is to be evaluated in order to find a competitive building lease offer and the best development concept for the area.

    Submit a binding offer
    In the current phase 1b “shortlist”, the teams selected from phase 1a “prequalification” would be given the opportunity to deepen their proposals and submit a binding offer for building permits. After the legally binding construction contract and the development agreement between the canton and the investor of the winning concept have been concluded, the latter will take responsibility for the implementation of stage 2 «architectural competition / study contract». In doing so, the project is to be evaluated, which is able to implement the framework conditions of the development plan as well as the selected development concept from the 1st stage, writes the building department. ■
