Project Overview
Creating A Dedicated Frailty Unit at Northern General Hospital
As healthcare requirements continue to evolve, hospitals increasingly require specialist environments designed around specific patient needs. Northern General Hospital commissioned Jarvale to transform Huntsman Ward 1 into a dedicated Frailty Unit, supporting the care and treatment of older patients within an appropriate clinical setting.
The project involved alterations and refurbishment works designed to reconfigure the existing ward environment while ensuring the completed facility aligned with the operational requirements of the hospital and the needs of patients, staff and visitors.

Project Delivery
Transforming Existing Facilities to Meet Changing Healthcare Needs
Rather than constructing a new facility, this project focused on unlocking greater value from an existing hospital environment through careful refurbishment and adaptation.
Working closely with the design team and hospital stakeholders, Jarvale delivered a facility tailored to evolving healthcare requirements while maintaining the standards expected within a modern clinical setting.
The completed Frailty Unit provides a dedicated space designed to support patient wellbeing, operational efficiency and long-term service delivery.
