Three of St Helen’s GP surgeries were suffering from cramped, outdated buildings.
When the opportunity arose to create a modern purpose-built health centre, alongside office accommodation for Halton and St Helens PCT and further clinical facilities, all three practices were keen to work with Prime and explore the possibility of a move. Whilst everyone was aware that a new building could bring major benefits to patient care, it was still a huge task to create a health centre that all three proudly independent practices would be happy with.
This is why Prime conducted a thorough consultation with all interested parties to devise a building that would meet the specific needs of each practice and still remain flexible for any future expansion of services.
Fingerpost Park Health Centre gives each GP practice a separate light and spacious wing. Consulting rooms are situated on the ground floor for patient accessibility, while spiral staircases lead to office facilities for the PCT – offering local people a one-stop shop for their primary care needs.
I would recommend Prime. They’re not just the bricks and mortar people. They made the transition easy for us”
