Interserve Construction<\/a> has secured a \u00a3130m contract to refurbish the Prince Charles Hospital in Merthyr Tydfil<\/h2>\n

The contract, awarded by the Welsh Government<\/a>, will include renovations to the ground and first floors of the Prince Charles Hospital.<\/p>\n

The aim of the scheme will be to improve patient care and the working environment for staff by creating a more modern and efficient healthcare<\/a> setting.<\/p>\n

Operating theatres, critical care, radiology and outpatients\u2019 services are among the departments set to benefit from the refurbishment.<\/p>\n

\u2018Creating a modern and efficient hospital\u2019<\/h3>\n

Paul Gandy, managing director of UK construction at Interserve, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be involved in this major project which illustrates Interserve Construction\u2019s expertise in the healthcare delivery<\/a> sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur excellent track record in delivering projects similar in nature to this one, means we are now considered one of the country\u2019s leading construction companies for healthcare projects and we look forward to starting work and creating a modern and efficient hospital for the people of Merthyr Tydfil and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carl Read, divisional director at Interserve Construction in Wales, commented: \u201cWe are committed to providing social value and will be working with the local community to ensure employment opportunities and apprenticeships<\/a> are created throughout the life-time of this project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Economic boost<\/h3>\n

Interserve will be working with project partners to create dozens of apprenticeships for people involved in the refurbishment, boosting the local economy and jobs market.<\/p>\n

Health minister Vaughan Gething, said: “This is a substantial investment which will enhance patient care and the working environment at the hospital.<\/p>\n

“The hospital provides vital care for the Cwm Taf Morgannwg area and beyond, especially for a number of residents of Powys.<\/p>\n

“Alongside the many health and wellbeing benefits this funding will bring, it will also provide an economic boost for the community through local labour and subcontractors<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board CEO, Paul Mears, added: “We are really delighted to have received this funding from Welsh Government.<\/p>\n

“The redevelopment of Prince Charles Hospital is a key priority for the health board in ensuring we can deliver high-quality care for the local community and an improved environment for our staff to work in.”<\/p>\n

Work is set to begin on the Prince Charles Hospital in November and is forecast to be completed in 2026. During this time the hospital will remain operational.<\/p>\n
