Construction company Bluestone is continuing to build its reputation as a leading provider of healthcare buildings by securing a framework to deliver three state-of-the-art health and social care centres in Doncaster. The new facilities, worth around £9 million, will be developed as part of a national framework to improve community healthcare across the UK following the launch of the NHS Local Improvement Finance Trust (LIFT) initiative.
The centre in Thorne is the largest development within the programme, accommodating extensive facilities including two doctors’ surgeries, a social care unit, a dental surgery and a library, as well as treatment rooms and a minor surgery suite. Two smaller schemes at Denaby and Sandringham Road will provide a doctor’s surgery, dentist and additional facilities (including a library at Denaby).
Bluestone will ensure that each building blends in with its surroundings by using traditional construction methods and materials to enhance the appearance incorporating dark slate coloured roofing to complement the style of local buildings.
