Heartlands Dialysis Unit

Birmingham, UK

Birmingham Heartlands Hospital is part of The Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust, one of the largest Trusts in England. The Heartlands Dialysis Unit is a satellite renal unit that has been designed to serve patients in the Birmingham area with kidney dialysis facilities, support and information on kidney-related diseases.

proAV was asked to deliver professional audio visual presentation facilities for a new seminar room at the Training Centre located within the Heartlands Dialysis Unit. The requirements of this specialist education facility called for a user-friendly, interactive AV solution that would strengthen the quality of its training delivery.

The beauty of this easy-to-use system lay in its simplicity and intuitive control; it comprised a ceiling-mounted projector, interactive whiteboard, bespoke lectern system with a built-in control system and a range of audio visual source equipment including computer, guest laptop, DVD/VCR and ceiling speaker system.

On a practical level, our new interactive screen has made a big difference to our teaching sessions and presentations, allowing us to be more creative through the use of professional images, graphs and the ability to link to other presentations and involve staff in using the board.Trudi Manji, Heartlands Dialysis Unit

proAV's seamless installation was welcomed with glowing praise from the client:

'The quality of work was timely, excellent and complete,' commented Trudy Manji, Renal Nurse Specialist, Training and Education at the Unit. 'It included minor details such as working quietly so that the function of the rest of the suite could continue as normal. Post-installation, proAV contacted us regularly to ascertain our satisfaction and usability; we had direct support and first-class user training with ongoing availability of help whenever required.
