SOUTH DONEGAL COMMUNITY NURSING UNIT

This project will see the construction of an 80 bed Community Nursing Unit (CNU) as an extension to the Sheil Hospital, Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal over three floors in a combination of Long Stay, Short Stay and Dementia Wards. The new extension is located and designed to minimise impact on the existing protected building – leaving large portions of the existing Sheil building exposed and visible. The development of a two wing solution breaks the bulk of the new extension when viewed from the south, each wing set up on a different axis – established based on the influence of natural daylight and views from the building.
