ACIPC Members – I am sending this on behalf of Artas Architects who have contacted the College. If you are able to assist please engage with them directly.
Artas Architects have been engaged by DHHS to design and document new acute medical unit within the existing area of Launceston General Hospital.
We are seeking advice from an Infection Prevention Consultant on the use of materials and best practice in renovation.
The interior of this area will be completely demolished to suit the brief and level of services required to operate new isolation rooms.
Our issues stand with ceilings – currently we have ceiling tiles proposed in the corridors and sealed plasterboard ceilings in isolation rooms, anterooms and ensuites.
Our preferred selection of the ceiling tiles for the AMU corridor was Humancare|Sinfonia by OWA however the request has come from the DHHS to install plasterboard ceiling instead unless we can find a product that proves these ceiling tiles would guarantee airborne transmission prevention or any other leaks.
We have no issue of installing plasterboard ceiling in the corridors apart from the fact that in the long term it would be more practical to maintain ceiling services through the appropriate management of ceiling tiles. If we were to have the plasterboard ceiling in the corridor we need to have access hatches every 1.2m.
The request has come from DHHS to propose a ceiling tile system of equivalent air seal/containment to plasterboard ceiling (with evidence and has been tested to meet relevant Aust Standards, etc.).
We are seeking to engage a consultant to advise on specific ceiling products used in Australia with concrete evidence of compliance with Australian Standards in regards to airborne transmission prevention.
We have a deadline to provide answers to DHHS by mid next week (17/3/21).
If you are able to assist please contact me directly (email or phone). Consultation fees can be discussed.
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards
Mia Marelja-Williams
