Santa Chiara hospital, located in the south of Trento, is part of APSS (the Public Healthcare Trust of the Autonomous Province of Trento, running 4 large healthcare districts and 7 hospitals).
Santa Chiara is composed by several buildings: the stellar body “V” (seven floors), the inpatient clinic (nine floors), the oncological department (three floors) and the administrative building.
The renovation of Santa Chiara hospital, characterized by a remarkable technical complexity, has included the realization of new electrical and mechanical plants, the insertion of the toilet in all the patients rooms, the redistribution of beds, the realization of new operating rooms, the increase of the number of surgeries, the improvement of paths.
The whole design approach has aimed, since the beginning, to maintain the business and functional efficiency of the whole hospital complex during the execution of works, previously identifying transitional solutions, in order to guarantee the continuity of service ensuring the highest level of reliability.
