Understanding the challenges of surveying in the Healthcare Sector
Ongoing maintenance, expansion, development and refurbishment of hospitals and healthcare facilities demands careful planning and management to minimise disruption. From local health centres to regional hospitals, every project must prioritise safety, continuity of care and long-term project planning.
RSK Geosciences supports healthcare developments with integrated planning and development surveys design advice and monitoring services, that balance technical rigour with the practical realities of live clinical environments. Our teams deliver solutions that protect people, and manage budgets and timescales, while keeping focus on achieving sustainability goals.
We have become the go-to team for several trusts, with early engagement and open discussion to manage the project to the benefit of our client. We recognise that many existing facilities are within highly constrained sites with very limited space and parking. We adapt well to these scenarios, working closely with our in-house specialist contractors and support teams to find effective solutions to undertake ground investigation and investigative work. Our specialist survey teams, together with our wider RSK colleagues, deploy topographical, utilities, measured building and structural surveys to establish a baseline for the site, feeding into detailed modelling to provide a basis for architectural and structural design within complex structures.
