Turnkey solution for updating hospitals
Many NHS estates teams struggle with an ageing hospital estate or healthcare facility that is no longer compliant or fit for purpose. We understand that working within a live healthcare environment demands careful planning and consideration.
Experts in healthcare design and construction, Health Spaces is able to offer the NHS a specialist service in the refurbishment and remodelling of healthcare buildings – our integrated services cover the full provider spectrum of primary, secondary and tertiary care.
We provide a full programme of consultancy, design and construction to refurbish hospital spaces into healthcare facilities that are in line with current and emerging HTM (Health Technical Memoranda) / HBN (Health Building Notes) guidance and all allied statutory compliance.

We believe that hospital refurbishment and renovation can improve both patient and clinician experience.
Repurposing hospital spaces is a cost-effective and sustainable way of increasing capacity and improving standards of patient care. Redundant and under-utilised office or archive space can be rapidly converted into clinical environments without the cost and delay of constructing new hospital buildings.
Repurposing existing areas can make the space work harder and smarter for your current clinical need.
A change of space
Repurposing healthcare spaces can also be undertaken as a wider hospital improvement project alongside additional building work to fully maximise the available estate footprint and complement new modular additions.
Health Spaces workflows include conducting investigative surveys and collaborating with your estates team to understand the current infrastructure and the programme required to create a world-class facility for patient care ad staff experience.
