Mould found on damp wall panels at new Aberdeen hospital

What happened: Plasterboard and insulation at the Baird Family Hospital and The Anchor Centre in Aberdeen were removed after becoming wet and developing mould.

Why it matters:

  • Potential health risks for patients and staff due to mould exposure.
  • Delays or additional costs may arise from repairs and remediation work.

MNN Take: Moisture in building materials can lead to mould growth, which must be addressed promptly to maintain a safe healthcare environment.
