Watch the New Year message from Aaron Cummins as he reminds the public that our hospitals remain under extreme pressure, and that you can help by making sure your loved ones get home as soon as they no longer need hospital care: youtu.be/be1jQ9bE-aA

Delighted that NHS England has published the support guide for the implementation of #hospitalathome and #virtualwards - building on existing services; developing multi agency and multi professional teams and supporting people in their own homes england.nhs.uk/publication/en…


Yesterday I wrote to Sajid Javid regarding the rising cost of fuel for nurses working in the community.

Community Health Services are working with local systems to develop new models of care including the expansion of #virtualwards, urgent community response, anticipatory care and enhanced health in care homes. Jennifer Keane #CAHPO #AHPsDeliver Matthew Winn ن


I really do think frailty hospital at home is a “game changer”. The patients we see really do seem the love it. When there’s a real alternative to hospital then giving patients the choice is the way to go!! UK Hospital at Home Society
