The construction, right at the “hottest” moment of the recent pandemic, of the new Asclepios 3 Pavilion at the Bari General Hospital–by the renowned Pineda firm–also saw the participation of the Paso brand, with a top-notch EVAC system.<\/p>\n
With two hundred beds distributed in 29 outpatient clinics, 40 new intensive and semi-intensive care beds and 155 ordinary inpatient beds, the new Asclepios Pavilion at the Bari Polyclinic is a tribute, even in name, to the Greek God of medicine, and represents an undoubted added value for an already large and avant-garde health facility, and a prompt response to the challenges to which the pandemic has subjected the national health system. Completing the work, designed by the renowned Pineda firm founded by Spanish archistar Albert de Pineda, are seven new rooms for disabled patients and ten total isolation wards.<\/p>\n
At the heart of the project, architecturally speaking, are the concepts of functionality and hospitality, which are fundamental in a hospital setting, where not only the patient but also the visitor must be made as comfortable as possible. The Pineda studio’s design, however, also looks to the future and sustainability, as evidenced by the choice to focus mostly on environmentally friendly and low-impact roofing materials. A perfect example of this is the roof of the structure, three thousand square meters of green on which rests a real roof garden, designed to immerse the Pavilion in the surrounding landscape of the Polyclinic, characterized by many green spaces.<\/p>\n
Humanity, reliability and innovation rhyme with safety<\/p>\n
So if architect de Pineda’s idea was to pay special attention to the aspects of humanization, sociality, interactivity, reliability and innovation, in order to build what has been called “the hospital of the future,” certainly it is impossible to ignore safety. And this is where Paso comes in, which has put its signature on this excellence of Italian healthcare with an equally excellent voice evacuation system, which is indispensable in a hospital environment where the need for voice announcements (emergency and otherwise) is self-evident.<\/p>\n
The six-zone system is managed by the CR8506-V six-line controller unit, the real heart of the PA8500-VES voice evacuation system, designed to manage all audio signals (evacuation, alert and service messages, including any background music). The CR8506-V controller is coupled with the RT8506-V expansion unit or router, which connected to each line of the Controller allows management of 6 more zones with external amplifiers of variable power up to a maximum of 1000 W. For amplification, the choice fell on the AW5648, an EN 54-16 certified 480 W amplifier, which belongs to the Paso range of power units specially designed for professional sound systems with service and emergency communications. The AW5600 series is notable for its high reliability, combined with a robust construction, and for the rear selector switch to enable\/disable the front tone and volume control adjustments-a feature that makes them reliable in emergency management in line with EN54 standards.<\/p>\n
Completing the system are the TSB8500-V emergency call stations (touch screen with MC132-V free-standing microphone) PMB132-V as well as a wide selection of EN54-24 certified loudspeakers selected from the range offered by PASO according to the target areas and installation needs, which guarantee the safeguarding of the connection line.<\/p>\n
