“Born Again” in Zurich

Operational start for the new Gynecological Department in Zurich

Zurich, 18.03.2024

The opening of the new Gynecological Clinic in Stadtspital Zürich marks the completion of the third constructional phase of the “Tower Upgrade.” As a unit, the new Gynecological Clinic is now located in the base of the tower and directly connected with other relevant departments.

Efficient processes and healing environment
The opening of the new Gynecological Clinic at the Stadtspital Zürich marks the completion of the third constructional phase of the “Tower Upgrade.” The rebuilding measures will contribute to a further improvement in the medical care available to women in Zurich. As the General Planner, Hemmi Fayet was responsible for the architecture and the construction management, which included the upgrading and reconstruction of the base level of the tower, the integration of the Maternity Department, and the renewal and restructuring of the entrance hall and patient admissions.

ATP architects engineers planned the birthing room with delivery tub in the maternity ward of the City Hospital Zürich.

The new Maternity Department with a total of 11 attractively designed delivery rooms (eight of which contain birthing tubs) and a theater for performing caesarian sections is now located in the base of the refurbished tower and is flooded with light thanks to the newly created internal courtyard. As a unit, the Gynecological Clinic is now directly connected with other relevant departments such as the Neonatology Department and the Postpartum Station in the adjacent wing. In its design, Hemmi Fayet paid special attention to the needs of employees, visitors, and patients. They worked closely with the project team of the City Hospital to ensure not only efficient operating processes but also the clear orientation and wellness-based environment aspired to by both the users and the operators of the complex.

Given its role in encouraging healing, we paid close attention to the relationship with the exterior – in terms of both the surrounding listed buildings and the newly created greenery of the courtyard.

ATP architects engineers designed the maternity department at Stadtspital Triemli in Zurich with a Healing Environment.

The so-called Tower, the former main building of the City Hospital, has been undergoing a comprehensive program of refurbishment and rebuilding since 2019. The experienced hospital planners of Hemmi Fayet (which was integrated into ATP architects engineers Zurich in 2024) have been involved in two major phases. All construction work has been carried out without interrupting normal hospital operations. Thanks to the comprehensive phasing and relocation planning, patient care has been completely uninterrupted.
