Vanguard Healthcare Solutions

Vanguard Healthcare, which already has a track record in the Nordic region, is a British company that designs and operates the world's largest fleet of temporary operating theatres and wards. The company demonstrated its commitment to the Norwegian market by attending the Conference on Rheumatic and Orthopaedic Surgery, hosted by the Norwegian Association for Rheumatic Surgery. Rob van Liefland, Vanguard Healthcare's Nordic and Benelux agent, met with leading Norwegian healthcare professionals at the annual event to discuss the latest technology in mobile surgical facilities and how Vanguard supports and delivers market leading clinical solutions to both public and private providers in the UK and throughout Europe; this includes the highly successful deployment of one of its 40-strong fleet to Scandinavia's largest emergency unit at the Södersjukhuset hospital in Stockholm. Rob van Liefland said: "We're delighted to be moving into the Norwegian health sector and attending prestigious events like the Conference on Rheumatic and Orthopaedic Surgery provides us with the opportunity to meet with the country's leading healthcare professionals, where we can discuss how our service could support them during periods of refurbishment or when they require additional capacity. "As the UK's leading enabler of mobile surgery and endoscopy services, both to the National Health Service and to private healthcare organisations, we're currently working in the UK and throughout several countries in mainland Europe to supply their hospitals with temporary solutions, in order for them to continue providing excellent standards of treatment to their patients. "Our state-of-the-art temporary operating rooms can be mobilised quickly to enable hospital management teams to confidently deliver safe, effective and compliant solutions and ensure that patient services are maintained at optimum levels during refurbishment, upgrades and expansion projects; this service also provides ideal solutions to those hospitals requiring emergency cover, as our mobile units can be quickly dispatched with or without medical equipment and clinical staff." Throughout the company's 10 years experience, its mobile operating rooms have delivered more than 155,000 patient procedures - including surgery in orthopaedics, ENT and urology - a total which is continuing to rise as Vanguard expands its services throughout Europe and into Norway.
