Centurion installs fire and security systems in NHS hospitals, clinics and care homes across the UK. NSI Gold across all four disciplines, with zero disruption to patient care.
About this sector
Healthcare and care home estates operate under some of the strictest fire safety legislation in the UK, with HTM 05-03 setting exacting standards for detection, alarm and evacuation. Clinical environments cannot tolerate false alarms or system downtime, and vulnerable residents in care settings require specialist evacuation planning from the outset.
Centurion has worked across NHS trusts, private hospitals, GP surgeries and registered care home groups for over a decade. From acute wards to dementia units and high-dependency suites, our engineers understand the compliance milestones and operational constraints that govern clinical spaces.
Every engineer working on healthcare sites holds a current DBS certificate and follows infection control procedures on every visit. Where ward closures are not possible, we phase installations to maintain full system integrity throughout the programme.
