Overview

Jaycom Construction and Planning Services is contributing to the development of a 400-bed children’s hospital in Winneba, commissioned by the Member of Parliament for the Effutu Constituency. The ongoing project is intended to expand access to specialised healthcare for children in Winneba, the Effutu Municipality and surrounding communities.

The scale of the development requires careful coordination across every stage. Jaycom’s responsibilities span planning, construction management, project management, building construction, external works and paving. This integrated approach promotes consistency between the approved design, construction activities, quality standards, timelines and the long-term operational needs of the hospital.

From Planning to Construction

The planning stage focuses on translating the project vision into a practical and buildable healthcare facility. This includes coordinating site requirements, construction activities, materials, labour and the different technical disciplines involved in the development.

As construction progresses, Jaycom provides structured supervision and quality control to ensure that work is completed according to the required specifications. The team also monitors site safety, workmanship, resource use and progress against the approved programme.

Construction and Project Management

Effective project management is central to the successful delivery of a hospital of this capacity. Jaycom coordinates contractors, consultants, suppliers and other project stakeholders to support timely decisions and efficient implementation.

Construction management activities include:

Work programming and site coordination
Quality assurance and workmanship monitoring
Materials and resource management
Contractor and supplier coordination
Health and safety supervision
Progress monitoring and reporting
Cost and schedule control
Inspection and correction of identified defects

External Works and Paving

The project extends beyond the main hospital structure. External works and paving will support safe movement, accessibility and efficient operations within the hospital environment.

These works include the development of internal access routes, pedestrian areas, paved surroundings, drainage systems and other supporting infrastructure. Careful attention is being given to durability, surface-water management, accessibility and the movement of patients, visitors, staff and emergency vehicles.

Building Healthcare Infrastructure for the Future

The 400-bed children’s hospital represents an important investment in healthcare infrastructure and child health services. Upon completion, the facility is expected to provide an appropriate environment for the delivery of paediatric care while contributing to the broader development of Winneba and the Effutu Municipality.

Through disciplined planning, coordinated project management, quality construction and well-executed external works, Jaycom Construction and Planning Services remains committed to helping deliver a safe, functional and lasting healthcare facility.
