PROJECT BACKGROUND

South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust was formed in 1994. The Trust headquarters are at Springfield University Hospital in Tooting and provides community and hospital psychiatric services to Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton and Wandsworth as well as offering more specialist services to people throughout the UK.

The Trust required a full health and safety assessment and as part of the Six Facet survey, a Function and Suitability Quality Survey was completed to establish the current level of compliance to prioritise capital and maintenance investment.

OUR APPROACH

NIFES Consulting Group was commissioned to undertake a Gap Analysis.

This was primarily to offer compliance assurance to the Trust with a view to identify high, significant, moderate and low risks. Simultaneously NIFES undertook a Function, Suitability and Quality Survey.

A team of surveyors and consultants carried out the commission over the course of two months.

SUMMARY
