Project Details

Healthcare and Later-Living Estate Refurbishment

Virtus Consult has supported HC-One in delivering refurbishment and improvement works across its national portfolio of care homes, providing Project Management and Quantity Surveying services.

The programme involves projects of different sizes and complexities, ranging from individual accommodation improvements to substantial refurbishments and extensions within operational care environments.

Recent commissions have included works at Quayside Care Home in York, Admirals Reach in Chelmsford, Douglas View in Hamilton, Hatton Lea in Bellshill, Castle View in Dumbarton, Hartford Court in Cramlington, Westwood House and Westwood Lodge in Wigan, and Silverwood Care Home in Beeston.

Each project requires careful consideration of the needs of residents and staff, as well as the practical challenges associated with carrying out construction activities while care services remain operational.

Virtus works alongside HC-One’s property management teams, designers and contractors to support project planning, procurement, cost management and the coordination of construction works.

Managing a programme of this nature requires consistent reporting, commercial controls and an understanding of the risks associated with occupied care facilities, while responding to the particular requirements of each home.

Our longstanding involvement demonstrates Virtus’s experience of national estate programmes, combining individual project delivery with the commercial and operational oversight required across multiple locations.

The programme also reflects our broader experience of healthcare refurbishment, adaptation and the improvement of existing building assets.
