Demographic demand modelling
Population, catchment and utilisation analysis translated into projected demand by service, location and time horizon.
EnquireConsulting services
The whole lifecycle, from demand to delivery.
Precinct and system design sits on demographic, catchment and demand analysis. From there we support clinical planning, the investment case, delivery, transition and ongoing assurance.
Our method
Demographics first.
Then the precinct.
Urban Healthcare turns demographic evidence into healthcare precincts, health systems and services that fit the communities they serve. Population, catchment and demand analysis come before any design decision.
- 01
Population
Who lives in the catchment now, and who will in future: age profile, growth, cultural mix and socio-economic context.
- 02
Catchment
Where people live in relation to existing services, how they travel, and where they currently seek care.
- 03
Demand
Population and utilisation translated into projected demand, capacity and workforce, by service and over time.
- 04
Precinct and system design
Precincts, networks and service models sized and sequenced to that demand, then tested with clinicians.
Illustrative catchment model. Rings show how analysis separates the community a precinct serves directly from the wider region.
Analysis you can defend
Population. Catchment. Demand.
We model how a community is likely to use healthcare, by service and location, and what capacity and workforce that implies. The same evidence base then informs the precinct plan, the clinical brief and the business case, so each decision traces back to the people being served.
Demographic demand modellingUnderstand the community
Every sound plan starts with who needs care, where they live and how demand will change.
Capacity and workforce modelling
Beds, procedural capacity, clinical spaces and the workforce needed to staff them, tested against projected demand.
EnquireDesign the precinct and the system
Precincts, networks and services shaped to the evidence and the clinical intent.
Precinct and network design
Roles, relationships and sequencing for hospitals, community services and enabling uses within a precinct or network.
