Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG), via constituent company HCS, has been awarded a new contract to support Perth Royal Infirmary with a variety of water treatment services.
Perth Royal Infirmary serves a population of around 182,000 across the City of Perth and the wider Perth and Kinross area. It is managed by NHS Tayside.
Perth Royal infirmary has its origins in the County and City Infirmary in York Place. This Grecian style building was designed by William Mackenzie, with the original cost of the land and buildings being £6812-15-3 ½d. The building of the hospital was funded by public subscription and it opened on 1 October 1838. It closed when the current building was completed.
The Accident & Emergency department was added in 1993 and the hospital became a University Teaching Hospital in 2006.
Developments completed in 2009 included a new 10-bed Macmillan cancer hospice costing £4.5 million, the demolition of the listed Cornhill House to allow room for expansion and the creation of a £2 million dialysis unit and a £1.7 million haematology and oncology facility.
HCS is part of PTSG Water Treatment Ltd, one of five independent divisions of PTSG. The other divisions are being PTSG Access & Safety Ltd, PTSG Electrical Services Ltd, PTSG Building Access Specialists Ltd and PTSG Fire Solutions Ltd. Together, they deliver the full range of specialist services to the construction and FM sectors.
