Triage tent for Maastricht Hospital

The Solution
On Friday morning March 13th, Neptunus was approached for an emergency triage tent. After a site visit, the build-up of this triage tent was immediately started on Saturday morning 14 March. A Neptunus Alure Globe temporary structure was provided which has a high sidewall height and cassette flooring system. The tent will be partitioned and equipped with water, electricity, lighting, toilet facilities and HVAC.

In the triage tent, doctors can assess the severity of the complaints per patient and decide which patients need urgent help. The hospital expects a larger influx of patients due to the pandemic.

The Challenge
The time schedule. From enquiry (Friday March 13th) to construction (Saturday March 14th). It is in everyone’s interest that the triage tent can be operational as soon as possible.

A trailer with a CT scanner was placed in the footprint of the tent. This mobile CT scanner was placed first and the tent was constructed around it.

Result
With the construction of this large medical tent at the emergency department the hospital MUMC+ is prepared for a large influx of patients.
