CAMHS Unit / Glenfield Hospital

The Challenge:

Fusion were tasked with providing electrical services to support a new-build project for the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Unit at Glenfield Hospital. This project focuses on the creation of a 15-bed mental health unit to support children and young people with emotional, behavioural or mental health difficulties within the local area.

The operation required taking services from the existing Bradgate Unit in the Glenfield Hospital and moving them to the new unit. This included telecommunications, security, power, door access links and CCTV.

How We Helped:

Due to the sensitive area which we were working, it was key to ensure well managed phased planning to minimise disruption. To achieve this, Fusion developed different design options, allowing the client to choose which would achieve minimum disruption and maximum productivity for the facility.

As well as minimising the impact on the existing facility, we also had to work around essential COVID-19 restrictions. This meant working safely and efficiently to prevent delays to the project while ensuring that all staff, patients and contractors were not put at risk.

The Outcome:

We successfully completed the project on time and to a high standard, ensuring all critical systems were fully operational and ready for use. The client was extremely satisfied with the quality of our work, highlighting our team’s professionalism, attention to detail and commitment to minimising disruption throughout the delivery. The new 15-bed CAMHS unit is now fully functional, providing a modern, safe, and supportive environment for young people requiring specialist mental health care to the Leicester area. Fusion is proud to have played a key role in the delivery of this vital facility for the local community.
