How to find Department of Health Design and Technical Guidance: Department of Health Design and Technical Guidance is available free to NHS employees via a login process through the NHS Estates Knowledge & Information Portal (KIP).

This website has been developed to provide a UK-wide source of knowledge, examples of good practice and expertise in the provision of the healthcare environment. The K&IP is a searchable source of information on the many aspects of the healthcare environment. Anyone can apply to and gain access to KIP – see the application window on the above page – but non-NHS staff cannot access the whole body of NHS guidance, only executive summaries and some reports. Individual documents can be accessed either by purchasing from The Stationery Office (TSO) or through one of the two subscription web-based providers; Barbour Index or IHS Technical Indexes.
