Meinhardt have provided building services for 28 dialysis clinics through Australia and New Zealand for Nephrocare. Nephrocare is the largest private provider of dialysis clinics in Australia.

Each site has required a unique design but the client has similar requirements for each facility. A common engineering design solution has been developed to create the most comfortable spaces for patients during their procedures, help speed up project completion and ensure the budget is met.

An engineered approach to air distribution was taken utilising swirl type diffusers to reduce drafts, significantly improving the operational environment.

These projects range from a purpose built, stand-alone facility in Alice Springs, to refurbishment and fit-outs of existing buildings or parts of hospitals to clinics for ‘Home Therapy’ training with a range of values from $250,000 to $2 million.
