Healthcare Lockers

Enhanced Locker Solutions for Ninewells Hospital Staff

Ninewells Hospital, one of Europe’s largest teaching hospitals, required an efficient, secure storage solution for its staff after a fire destroyed over 1,500 nurses' lockers and 600 shared uniform lockers in 2010. Located in Dundee, Scotland, Ninewells is known for its advanced medical specialties and research, including neurosurgery and cancer management.

The Challenge:Fire-Damaged Locker Facilities

The fire caused significant damage to the nurses' changing rooms, resulting in the destruction of lockers that housed uniforms and personal items. LinkLockers was called in to provide a temporary storage solution and manage the refurbishment of the nurses' block.

The Solution: Custom Locker Solutions

LinkLockers installed hundreds of secure lockers to house over 12,000 uniforms and personal possessions. The solution included:

  • 500 single-door time-share lockers with token-operated dispensers
  • 2,000 personal lockers with padlocks for staff possessions
  • Sloping tops on locker runs to prevent material accumulation
  • ActiveCoat® protective finish to reduce bacterial cross-contamination by 99.9%

The Impact: Enhancing Storage Efficiency and Business Continuity

LinkLockers enabled Ninewells Hospital to maintain business continuity with a fast, efficient response and ensured the refurbishment of the changing rooms was completed on schedule. The lockers provided secure storage while reducing the risk of bacteria and ensuring the safety of staff belongings.
