Bioquell Pod
Creating single patient rooms from an open area in your hospital without absorbing construction costs or lengthy shutdown periods is all possible with the Bioquell Pod. This customisable solution is a quicker, cost effective alternative to permanent brick and mortar options. A single Bioquell Pod can help reduce HAIs, manage escalated incidents, provide patient privacy and more.
Ideal for:
- Converting open wards to one or more single patient rooms
- Decreasing HAIs and escalated incidents
- Reducing bed-blocking
- Creating rooms without construction
- Enhancing patient privacy, dignity and well-being

Infection Prevention
As a major and ongoing cause of concern for healthcare facilities, Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) impact the lives of one in 25 people admitted. In order to prevent and eliminate these infections from your facility, world leading hospitals have implemented a strategic action plan incorporating solutions from Bioquell.
Custom Patient Isolation Rooms
Creating a patient room no longer requires the commitment of construction, ward closures or even a large budget. The Bioquell Pod allows for a customised single patient to be placed within the confines of a ward without impacting operations. Its design and installation mean no construction is required, making it an ideal rental or permanent solution.
Bed Blocking
Cohorting requires using the entire ward or bed spaces available in a ward for just a specific type of infected patient. As a result, a single patient can render numerous bed spaces in the area unusable. The Bioquell Pod alleviates these concerns by allowing you to create a single patient room or rooms within an open ward.
A&E Throughput
Caring for patients with confirmed or suspected infectious diseases in the A&E provides challenges when single rooms are not available. The Bioquell Pod provides the opportunity to care for patients whilst maintaining throughput.
Patient privacy, well-being and dignity
The Bioquell Pod increases hand hygiene infection prevention practices for the staff entering the room, and offers greater dignity and privacy for a better patient experience. Treatments can be given with the curtains drawn, and your patient can recover in an environment more conducive to sleep.
Bioquell Pod Examples
Open Ward Multi-Pod Setup
These Bioquell Pods line the interior of an ICU in a Saudi Arabian hospital without losing bed spaces. They prove to be invaluable assets by hosting infected patients individually, allowing this ward to operate with a decreased risk of an outbreak.

Contact Precaution Bioquell Pods
Side by side, Bioquell Pods like these can allow a facility to provide critical care to patients under contact precautions. A facility requiring an update to its floor plan can use the Bioquell Pod to allow for single patient rooms to be added without construction, freeing up side rooms for patients with other needs.
The Bioquell Pod offers infection prevention assistance and also enhances patient well-being and dignity by offering privacy and independent lighting levels that an open ward does not allow. Patients can receive treatment or rest comfortably. This Bioquell Pod has made a significant impact by providing a more comfortable experience for paediatric patients requiring a longer stay.
Single Bioquell Pod with 2 Existing Walls
A Bioquell Pod can be built to various dimensions and use existing walls or be completely freestanding. It can even be built around various other wall features to be placed in nearly any open space.
A Complete Infection Prevention Solution
Like any hospital room, the Bioquell Pod must be properly disinfected to ensure continued patient safety and the risk of spreading the pathogen further. Utilising Bioquell’s decontamination technology, you can ensure a complete elimination of pathogens from every exposed surface in the room. The Bioquell Pod is completely compatible with our proprietary Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour technology, making decontamination simple, safe and fast.
