Our CCG (South Cheshire Health) www.southcheshirehealth.org.uk won the Patient Centred Care HSJ award this week! for our nursing home scheme. Thanks to mchft for pump priming the trial. They funded the trial to reduce pressure on emergency admissions from 3 of the largest nursing homes in the area. We are now rolling out across the patch using reablement funding. If it proves successful on a bigger scale we hope to seek recurrent funding. rather than create a new team like most schemes we funded practices to take on the GMS+ work including ward rounds & individualised care plans.
