Care Home Programme

The Project

Torsion Care’s care home programme covers a series of care home developments delivered through the contractor’s in-house design department. Kingswinford and Chester are two of those schemes.

Care homes within the programme are typically in the order of £12m and up to around 70 beds.

My Role

Project Lead with technical oversight of the architectural design work, while part of the management team developing Torsion Care’s in-house design function.

May 2026 – October 2026.

What I Contributed

Reviewing and redefining the planning drawing package to improve the presentation and clarity of submitted information.
Establishing Revit standards and workflows for the in-house team, together with cloud-based collaboration.
