Total Regen Solution
Considerate construction
Based in the centre of a residential area, the construction site was formerly home to a popular Worcester pub that closed its doors in 2017. Upon organising controlled demolition of the old building. Total Group engaged with neighbouring residents to brief them on the upcoming construction works and key milestones.
This contact was maintained throughout the project via face-to-face contact and letter deliveries, with Total Group working hard to ensure minimal disruption via pre-arranged, just-in-time material deliveries as well as the implementation of noise and dust minimisation techniques.
Designed with expert knowledge of neurorehabilitation
All areas were designed in compliance with acute hospital, Health Building Note standards, with Total Regen working closely with the design and wider project teams to construct a modern, open-plan facility that supports the delivery of excellent neurological rehabilitation, and care services.
As well as being wheelchair accessible throughout, the home’s user-centric design benefits from wide corridors, assistive technologies, underfloor heating, specialist hoists, as well as anti-ligature rooms to help prevent accidents.
Energy efficiency
The home benefits from a highly energy efficient design, featuring combined heat and power (CHP) – a low carbon process that captures and uses the heat that is a by-product of the electricity generation process – as well as LED lighting throughout. In addition, high density full fill cavity insulation was used throughout the scheme, which will keep the facility and its residents and staff warm during the winter months.
High-quality finish
The facility was handed over in early 2019 and unveiled to health and social care stakeholders, local residents, and the wider community with a grand-opening event. Completed to the client’s budget, the modern, purpose-built facility features lounges, dining facilities, and communal spaces, with an en-suite toilet and wet room in each bedroom.
