Construction
Every patient should be cared for in a high quality environment that is fit for purpose. From flagship schemes such as new hospitals and health centres to refurbishments and upgrades, we support the NHS by providing improved and affordable healthcare environments, aligned to evolving clinical service and local health economy needs, so clinicians can focus on the delivery of care.

Upgrades and updates
We deliver a range of projects to keep NHS buildings statutorily and lease compliant and in a good state of repair, in line with our obligations as a landlord. Where possible, we use unique and innovative ways to not only make them safe, but also sustainable.
New builds and refurbishments
We manage transformational building projects, such as building new NHS health centres, adding extensions, and reconfiguring and/or refurbishing existing buildings, at the request of occupiers to help the NHS get the most from its estate. Up-front funding is normally provided by NHS Property Services, but in some cases we work with third-party development partners.
£13m remodelling of hospital tower block
Whitby Hospital in North Yorkshire currently undergoing an upgrading process as part of a £13M scheme, entailing the modernisation and remodelling of the ‘tower block’ structure on the Springhill hospital site. Works are due to complete in summer 2021.
NHS Property Services has worked in close partnership with Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust and North Yorkshire Clinical Commissioning Group.
The new Crocus Medical Practice in Saffron Walden
We refurbished an underused hospital wing in Saffron Walden to provide the nearby Crocus GP Surgery with a new location as the lease on their existing long-term home was expiring and the listed building they resided in was restrictive.
Patients can now benefit from more joined up care in a modern environment fit for the future, while we have made more efficient use of the the NHS estate.
What our construction team did in 2018/19
Our seven regional construction teams work closely with NHS colleagues to update and create internal and external spaces that are fit-for-purpose for patient needs now and in the future in support of the NHS Long Term Plan.
