Design Statement. The event enabled participants to clearly describe the attributes the building must possess, this will support the development of the detailed business case. The business objectives the project seeks to achieve are: To provide current clinical service requirements locally and reduce the number of referrals to other service providers and additional attendances required. Deliver group based activities. A key strand of NHS Fife’s Clinical Strategy is to reduce health inequalities by reconfiguring services and resources so that there is equity of access to services across Fife and across all patient groups. Care should be provided at home or as close to home as possible. Delivering services in a group environment will allow a greater number of NHS Fife residents to be supported in their management of their own well-being.

Design Statement. A Design Statement for services in the first phase (see Appendix 17) has been prepared to ensure that good design is utilised to achieve the best outcomes for these services. As indicated in Section A, 2.3.3, further Design Statements will be developed to reflect the needs and objectives of other services in the subsequent phases of the programme.

There are further objectives in the Design Statement that aim to ensure that investment in this programme aligns with policy; these focus on flexibility to cope with future expansion/contraction and sustainability linking in with the process outlined in Section A, (para. 2.3.2) of this Initial Agreement. An initial AEDET assessment for this phase has been conducted on existing facilities to articulate shortcomings and identify the key design objectives and particular issues that require to be addressed in the options to be developed; this process helped to define the objectives set out in the Design Statement.
Design Statement. ‘It should also encourage the local community to use appropriate parts of the site to aid integration and lower stigma’ ‘The layout should encourage interaction between patients and staff such that it feels like ‘help is always at hand’.’ ‘The site as a while must be a place that encourages friends and family to visit and where contact with the life outside is supported.’ ‘Any belonging that must be deposited on arrival (or moving within the facility) must be secure to minimise the sense of loss/loss of control.’ ‘Design of bedrooms should xxxxxx a sense of control and a sense of peace.’ ‘The xxxx should not feel unduly clinical’ ‘Inclusive design, from both a physical disability and dementia- friendly perspective where appropriate’ ‘The design of the xxxx must support the staff in maintaining patient safety and dignity.’ ‘With the patient group in mind, the building finishes, fixtures and fittings should be robust, easily cleaned and readily maintained over a long life span of use.’ ‘There must be a discreet way of entering the building for those entering involuntarily, both to preserve their dignity and to reduce disruption to other patients’ ‘Staff working spaces should be, primarily, in patient areas, with limited use of private offices and ‘staff only’ areas.’ ‘The buildings should accommodate the different needs of a changing patient population particularly in relation to gender separation and physical needs of disable people.’ ROYAL EDINBURGH HOSPITAL CAMPUS: MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES DESIGN STATEMENT APPENDIX 17 INTRODUCTION
