Erith Health Centre is provided by NHS Property Services Ltd, a company owned by the Department of Health and Social Care in the United Kingdom that took over the ownership of around 3,600 National Health Service (NHS) facilities in April 2013.
In 2022 the company had transformed 69 vacant or under-utilised spaces in its properties for use by community groups or provision of non-clinical services as part of its national social prescribing programme.
In this contract, engineers from PTSG Access & Safety Ltd will install new Mansafe systems at the Health Centre.
Building safety equipment, or fall arrest installations such as Mansafe systems, are essential to ensure operatives remain safe when carrying out their work at height, preventing them from falling. Fall arrest equipment typically includes a full body harness, lanyard, and anchor point. The equipment is used to protect workers from serious injury or death in the event of a fall.
