Iceland’s capital Reykjavík is currently building the state-of-the-art “New National Hospital”. The new hospital has been designed for modern and efficient operations. One example of this is the planning for the laboratory centre, which is linked to other departments by a special pneumatic tube system so that samples and analyses can be quickly and efficiently sent to where they are needed. Another feature of the hospital are its operating theatres that can be used during earthquakes up to a certain magnitude. Earthquakes have been increasingly frequent in Iceland over the past few months and should now no longer affect hospital operations. In addition to the New National Hospital, there will also be a hotel for patients. The rooms are connected to all the hospital’s key operating units. In any event, the new hospital in Reykjavík will be a special building and GEDA is a part of this extraordinary project.
