Modular Hospital Buildings: The New Alternative for Health Care Construction

When a hospital or clinic needs additional space, modular buildings offer an affordable and practical solution for rapid expansion. They are designed to meet the same specifications of a traditionally built facility, but they are ready in a fraction of the time. By eliminating long, costly construction projects, clinics can start using their new space quickly and dedicate additional financial resources to other critical areas, such as staffing and patient care.

Reasons the Health Care Industry Can Benefit from Modular Hospital Buildings

The medical sector has discovered the following benefits from using modular buildings:

Budget

Cutting costs is a major concern in the healthcare industry and modular hospital buildings are an effective way to do just that. They are ready to use quickly and dramatically reduce labor costs because construction is finished in a short time period, often as little as a few weeks. Factories create minimal waste when they build modular buildings, which cuts down on construction expenses as well.

Safety

Modular buildings are a safe way to add needed space. Construction zones are designated as hard hat areas because there are always risks that come with that type of work. Modular buildings are constructed in a factory, then assembled on site. This moves all the hazardous work and heavy machinery of construction away from a healthcare facility and their patients.

Rapid expansion

It’s not uncommon for medical facilities to need more space on very short notice. During a crisis, there may be a sudden and pressing need for extra examination rooms, processing labs, operating rooms, and extra storage for supplies. Modular buildings can be assembled and ready to use in very little time. This gives a healthcare facility the ability to respond quickly to a pressing need.

Temporary and permanent options

Modular buildings give medical institutions flexible, temporary space. If a clinic isn’t ready to invest in permanent additions to their facilities or only needs extra room for a short time, they can lease modular space. This is a simple way to accommodate any short-term need for things such as extra patient rooms, storage, locker rooms, laboratories, cleanrooms, or pharmacies. All these facilities can easily transition into a long-term lease or purchase if needs change.

Minimal disruption

Installing a modular building prevents major interruptions to the critical services offered by medical providers. Traditional construction is loud, disruptive, and lengthy, but modular construction happens in the factory, keeping the noise and hassle off-site. When a modular building is installed, the modules are transported to the location and then assembled quickly—often within a single day. Health care centers do not have the luxury of wasting time, because their patients rely on them for critical care—many patients cannot afford to reschedule due to the disruptions caused by traditional construction.
