Anti-Ligature Hospital Construction

CM Healthcare Construction (CMHC) specialises in the development of secure, anti-ligature hospital environments, ensuring patient safety while maintaining full NHS and CQC compliance. This project involved the construction of risk-reducing healthcare spaces, reinforced anti-ligature doors and secure seclusion rooms to support the needs of mental health patients.

Specialist Anti-Ligature Construction

To minimise self-harm risks while providing a safe and functional healthcare environment, our construction approach included:

Our NHS-compliant seclusion rooms were developed to provide a secure, controlled space for patients in crisis, featuring:

- Vision panels with tamper-proof glass for constant monitoring

- Secure, controlled entry systems with emergency overrides

- Acoustic wall panelling to manage noise and create a calming space

- Airflow-controlled ventilation to maintain comfortable temperatures
