Our services cover everything from regular maintenance to strategic planning, integral for the sector. This integrated approach streamlines operations, enhancing efficiency and quality of care. By managing each element of the facility, we aid healthcare providers in focusing on their core responsibilities, delivering exceptional patient care, while we deliver TFM services that go beyond the basics.

  • Effective cleaning ensures healthcare facilities maintain the highest hygiene standards and promises both patient and professional safety. For your business, this could mean enhancing training, using proper equipment and PPE, or collaborating with infection prevention teams. OCS uphold stringent hygiene standards aligned to NHS national cleaning standards, demonstrating proactivity, a deep understanding of the healthcare setting, and empathy towards patients’ conditions.

  • In healthcare settings, nutritional meals are essential for patient recovery. Our tailored, nourishing meal solutions are crafted in close collaboration with the NHS and healthcare professionals, ensuring varied dietary requirements are met while prioritising the physical and mental health of everyone in your facility. Our dedicated team of nutritionists and chefs are experts in working with the specialist nature of patient feeding, nutrition and standards.

Through continuous monitoring, early detection, and swift intervention, we ensure your facilities remain sterile, secure, and compliant.

Leading with Technology

Healthcare facilities aren’t just bricks and mortar – they are a living environment that breathes, responds, and adapts. Yet many are still managed reactively, wasting energy and money, and failing to meet the needs of the people inside them. OCS ABi is an AI-powered, cloud-connected platform that enables the intelligent evolution of facilities. Traditional building management systems offer fragmented data. OCS ABi bridges those gaps – Integrating everything from IoT sensors to workforce tools – delivering insight-led, real-time facility monitoring.

We aim to drive change by ensuring sustainable sourcing practices, boosting energy efficiency, and through ESG-led projects like our ‘Grow Gardens’ therapeutic green spaces for patients, professionals, and local communities.
