屯門醫院手術室大樓擴建計劃通訊第 6期 (2018年12月號)

為新手術室大樓提供重要支援 後勤設施至為重要

屯門醫院手術室大樓擴建工程在完成第一階段的地基及遷移地底設施工程後,已經踏入第二階段, 即開展大樓的主要建築工程。工程承辦商目前正全速挖掘,以便興建新大樓的兩層地庫。另一方面,距離地盤約十多米的地方,同樣大興土木興建三座建築物,為日後的新手術室大樓提供重要支援。

位於屯門醫院病理學大樓旁的位置,日後將會有三座較小規模的建築物,與新手術室大樓息息相關。這三座建築物分別是新電掣房、煤氣錶房及新危險品儲存倉。

新電掣房增供電量

為應付日後新手術室大樓的電力需求,屯門醫院需要整體提升供電量及穩定性,故此我們藉今次機會,一併興建這座樓高三層的新電掣房。新電掣房日後除了支援新手術室大樓之外,更會為屯門醫院主座大樓部份地方供電。預計至明年上半年,新電掣房的工程便會竣工。

至於煤氣錶房的工程則於早前已經完成,現正進行連接地下管道的工程及檢查工作等;而新危險品儲存倉則為最後一座興建的建築物,竣工後會與現存的危險品儲存倉作出整合。在施工期間, 附近道路會有特別交通安排,惟有關路段主要是供醫院車輛使用,不會對公眾造成太大的影響。


手術室大樓擴建計劃 為孕婦及嬰兒 提供更好的環境

我們經常說屯門醫院手術室大樓擴建計劃完成後,可以為屯門醫院新增臨床空間,除了增加手術室的數目外,亦可以藉這次擴建的機會擴展急症室和放射科等部門。其實, 除了上述部門的服務得以改善外,我們亦在設計時作出了詳細的規劃,務求在新手術室大樓中,納入更多臨床設施, 透過今次工程的機遇,進一步提升屯門醫院提供給新界西醫院聯網居民的服務,當中包括今期通訊介紹的產科在內。

與時並進 提升產房設施

屯門醫院已有接近三十年歷史,產房的設計與手術室一樣,均需要與時並進。現時屯門醫院的產房位於主座手術室大樓七樓,產房共設有十張病床,可同時讓十名孕婦自然分娩,另設有一個手術室為有需要的孕婦進行緊急剖腹生產;若果同一時間有多於一名孕婦需要緊急剖腹生產, 產科便要向其他專科借用位於其他樓層的手術室以作應付。

根據初步設計,我們在未來的新手術室大樓內,將會預留部份樓層供產科使用,可使用的臨床空間因而增加。產房將會遷至新手術室大樓, 無論在整體佈局及運送孕婦安排等各方面,都有較大空間處理,同時亦可增加產房病床及手術室的數目,可供更多產婦同時使用。另外,產房的後勤區域面積,例如檢查室、醫療物料及儀器貯存室等亦會擴展,有助強化對產婦的支援。

滿足增加的服務需求

聯網的產科服務一向集中在屯門醫院提供,因我們是以聯網為服務基礎,而屯門醫院的配套較為齊備,例如全面的兒科支援,可以為新手媽媽及初生嬰兒提供全面的照顧。展望未來,整個新界西的人口持續上升,其中不乏年輕家庭遷入,相信新手術室大樓落成後,將可對產婦和嬰兒提供更佳的服務,更多的臨床空間亦可滿足不斷增加的服務需求。


To Provide GREAT SUPPORT to the New OT Block

The phase two works of the Tuen Mun Hospital Operating Theatre Block Extension Project has already commenced and workers are busily digging the underground area to build the basement floors of the building. Apart from building the basements floors, three more relatively small-scale buildings are under construction near the main construction site to provide great support to the new Operating Theatre Block in future, namely the Electrical Building, Town Gas Meter Room and Dangerous Goods Store. Upon the completion of the construction works, the Electrical Building will be the core part of power supply to the new Operating Theatre Block, as well as the Main Block of Tuen Mun Hospital. Power supply to Tuen Mun Hospital, including its capacity and stability, will be enhanced as a whole. For Town Gas Meter Room, the construction works has already completed. Works to connect the pipes will be undertaken shortly. Last but not least, the construction works of the Dangerous Goods Store will commence in 2019. Upon the completion of the works of the new Dangerous Goods Store, it will create synergy effect with the old store in future.

Enhancement of Obstetrics Service

New Territories West Cluster’s Obstetrics service has been provided mainly at Tuen Mun Hospital. The population of the New Territories West is expected to increase in coming years. With more younger generation families moving to Tuen Mun and Yeun Long, there is a need to enhance our Obstetrics service shortly so that the demand can be met. The current delivery suite of Tuen Mun Hospital is located on 7th floor of our Operating Theatre Block, which can serve 10 pregnant women to deliver at the same time. For patients who need to have Cesarean Section operation, there is only one Operating Theatre designated for such purpose now. In case there is more than one Cesarean delivery operation required at the same time, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology will need to vacate an operating theatre from other specialty to cater such emergency operation. Taking the opportunity of the Operating Theatre Extension Project, we have planned to expand the delivery suite at the new Operating Theatre Block with more modern and spacious clinical facilities, aiming to provide better service to our patients in future.

Transplanted Trees are in Good Condition

We have reported our effort to translocate the palm trees nearby the construction site to other hospital green area in our previous issue. We have visited those trees recently. Although the Super Typhoon Mangkhut hit Hong Kong and made severe damage territory-wide in September, the trees are still in good condition and stand straight at their new “homes”. Our landscape architects have examined the trees’ health condition and confirmed they have successfully withstood the super typhoon. In order to keep monitor the health condition of the trees, landscape architects are submitting monthly report to us. More green elements will also be added to the new Operating Theatre Project, as part of our efforts to make our hospital more environmentally friendly.
