Location Reports

Until relatively recently, the majority of care operators carried out limited, if any, local analysis prior to new development or care facility acquisition. Not only is appropriate due diligence essential for risk minimisation on any site/healthcare acquisition but it also provides significant credibility in the eyes of funding institutions.

The HPC research department is extremely experienced in the analysis of locality data. HPC reports are available providing detailed information in respect of:

  • Competing operators
  • Existing bed provision
  • Demographic data

Care Home Quality Assessment

We live in an age where service user expectations continue to rise. As a consequence of this, corporate operators are continually re-appraising their estates and local authorities are increasingly seeking to reward operators of superior establishments.

HPC inspect the relevant care facilities and record environmental data before assessing quality against pre-agreed criteria. This service is of specific interest to:

  • Corporate healthcare operators in order to facilitate strategic estate reviews
  • Local authorities as part of a provision review or ‘Fair Price for Care’ exercise
