Compliance Management Software for Healthcare Estates
Managing fire safety, water safety, asbestos and building condition across hospitals, clinics and care homes, in one connected platform.
Supporting Safe, Compliant Healthcare Environments Across Every Site
Vision Pro Software provides a cloud-based compliance and estate management platform for NHS trusts, independent hospital groups and care home providers. Healthcare estates carry the same statutory duties as any other non-domestic premises, but the people inside them are often among the most vulnerable in society, the buildings rarely close, and specialist plant and augmented care environments bring risks that most premises never face.
Vision Pro Software brings fire safety, water safety, asbestos management, building condition and audit evidence together in one system. It replaces spreadsheets and paper logbooks with a single platform that estates teams, contractors and governance leads can all access, on site or remotely.
Compliance in Healthcare Estates: A Higher-Stakes Obligation
Healthcare premises are subject to the core UK health and safety framework, with an additional layer of sector-specific technical guidance and regulatory assurance on top. For estates teams, this means demonstrating compliance against several overlapping frameworks at the same time.
Key statutory duties include:
- Fire safety management under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, including fire risk assessments, fire alarm and emergency lighting testing, and fire door inspections
- Legionella control under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the Approved Code of Practice L8 and HSG274
- Asbestos management under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, including an up-to-date asbestos register, a written management plan and periodic re-inspection of known asbestos-containing materials
- Electrical safety, gas safety and other periodic inspection and testing obligations
Healthcare-specific guidance and assurance frameworks include:
- Health Technical Memorandum (HTM) 04-01, covering water safety in healthcare premises, including Water Safety Groups, water safety plans and the control of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in augmented care units
- HTM 05 (Firecode), covering fire safety in healthcare premises, including evacuation strategies for patients who cannot leave a building unaided
- HTM 06-01, covering electrical services supply and distribution
- CQC Regulation 15 (Premises and equipment) under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014, for all CQC-registered providers
- The NHS Premises Assurance Model (PAM) and the annual Estates Returns Information Collection (ERIC) for NHS trusts
For organisations running multiple hospitals, clinics or care homes, keeping consistent records across every site, and proving that standard to boards, the CQC and NHS England, is a significant operational and administrative burden. Vision Pro Software is built to take that burden off estates and compliance teams.
How Vision Pro Software Supports Healthcare Estates Teams
Managing compliance across a healthcare estate means keeping on top of many overlapping obligations, often across many sites at once. Vision Pro Software gives estates teams, compliance leads and executives the tools and visibility to stay in control.
Centralised Estate and Asset Register
Record every building, department, plant item and component across your healthcare estate in a single system. Store condition data, installation dates, service history, certificates and photographic evidence against each asset, from water systems and fire safety equipment to electrical infrastructure. For multi-site providers, this creates a single source of truth across every hospital, clinic or care home.
Water Safety Management Aligned with HTM 04-01 and ACoP L8
Manage legionella risk assessments, written schemes, temperature monitoring and remedial actions in one place. Record flushing of little-used outlets, thermostatic mixing valve servicing and water sampling results, and keep the evidence your Water Safety Group needs to review performance and make decisions.
Fire Safety and Fire Risk Assessment Management
Carry out and store fire risk assessments, track actions through to completion, and schedule fire door, compartmentation, fire alarm and emergency lighting inspections across every site. Records are structured to support fire safety management in line with HTM 05-01.
Asbestos Management in Occupied Clinical Buildings
Maintain an up-to-date asbestos register, schedule re-inspections of known asbestos-containing materials and hold your asbestos management plan centrally. Maintenance teams and contractors can check asbestos information before work starts, which is essential in buildings where wards and clinical areas cannot easily be vacated.
Building Condition and Backlog Maintenance
Capture condition surveys consistently across your estate, rank backlog maintenance by risk and plan lifecycle replacement over the medium term.
Audit Evidence for CQC and Premises Assurance
Build audit templates around your own standards, convert findings into tracked actions and keep a full audit trail of who did what and when. This gives registered providers clear premises evidence for CQC Regulation 15 and supports NHS trusts completing their Premises Assurance Model self-assessment.
Contractor and Authorised Person Oversight
Track contractor competence, RAMS and performance, and record remedial works with photos and sign-off captured from mobile devices. Keep records of Authorised Person and Responsible Person appointments for water, fire and electrical services in one place.
Real-Time Dashboards and Board Assurance
Live dashboards show compliance status, overdue inspections and high-risk items across every site. Estates committees, governance leads and boards get the assurance they need without waiting for manually compiled reports.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most frequently asked questions about Vision Pro Software for healthcare.
What compliance obligations does Vision Pro Software help healthcare estates manage?
Vision Pro Software supports the core statutory compliance requirements for healthcare premises, including fire safety, legionella and water safety, asbestos management, electrical and gas safety, and building condition. All records, certificates and inspection histories are stored centrally with a complete audit trail, so estates teams can show what has been done, when and by whom.
Does Vision Pro Software support HTM 04-01 water safety requirements?
Vision Pro Software helps estates teams manage the records that HTM 04-01 expects, including legionella risk assessments, temperature monitoring, flushing of little-used outlets, remedial actions and sampling results. Holding this information in one place makes it easier for your Water Safety Group to review performance and for Authorised Persons to demonstrate control.
Can Vision Pro Software help evidence CQC Regulation 15 premises compliance?
Yes. Regulation 15 requires premises and equipment to be clean, secure, suitable and properly maintained. Vision Pro Software keeps inspection records, maintenance history, certificates and completed actions against each building and asset, giving registered providers clear, organised evidence of how their premises are managed.
Can Vision Pro Software be used across multiple hospitals, clinics or care homes?
Yes. Vision Pro Software is built for multi-site organisations. Estates managers and executives can view the compliance status of a single site or the whole estate from one dashboard, with consistent templates and reporting across every location.
Does Vision Pro Software support the NHS Premises Assurance Model and ERIC reporting?
Vision Pro Software holds the condition, compliance and maintenance data that NHS trusts draw on when completing their Premises Assurance Model self-assessment and their annual ERIC return. Audit templates can be configured around your assurance framework so evidence is collected consistently throughout the year rather than gathered at the last minute.
Can inspections be completed on mobile devices, including in areas with poor connectivity?
Yes. The Vision Pro Software mobile app lets estates teams and contractors complete inspections, capture photos, record findings and collect sign-offs on site. Work can be carried out offline and synchronises automatically once a connection is available, which helps in plant rooms, basements and large hospital buildings where signal is unreliable.
Is Vision Pro Software suitable for NHS and public sector procurement?
Vision Pro Software is available through the UK Government G-Cloud 15 framework and is certified to ISO 27001, with Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation, and is hosted on Microsoft Azure.
