The new website ‘Space for Health’, linked to the Department of Health’s website, brings together a whole suite of guidance (including Health Technical Memoranda, Health Building Notes and other information) into one online resource for all those involved in the procurement, management, design and planning of healthcare facilities, including NHS and non NHS providers.
Users are able to seamlessly shift between different pieces of guidance, and access nation- specific information, depending on whether their project is in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. ‘Space for Health’ has been developed following an extensive three-year consultation period, including stakeholder events and evaluation of a pilot website. Health Minister, Mike O’Brien said, “This brings together all the guidance in one easy to access website.”
