Fight against covid-19 has shown what construction can do together

The NHS and the communities we serve need our support and services now, more than ever, in response to covid-19. Over the past weeks, we have united as an industry, pooled our skills and insight and delivered vital surge hospitals across England. As a result of the four NHS Nightingale Hospitals completed to date, the NHS has increased its intensive care unit capacity by 54%, providing reassurance that the standard of care is consistent with what you would find at any other hospital, should it be required. 

There will be six NHS Nightingale hospitals, most of which have been procured through the Department of Health’s ProCure22 (P22) framework - with six supply chain partners, including Kier - for the development and delivery of capital healthcare schemes in England.
