Other Information

The service is being provided to meet the requirements for Coroner's Report: Prevention of Future Deaths Regulation 28 (related Grenfell Tower Fire in 2017), and following feedback from the Grenfell Tower Fire affected population in North Kensington. The provision of a 16 month contract is based on the expected length of the North Kensington (Grenfell) Recovery Programme, and the length of time to transition from the additional services currently provided for the Grenfell affected population, to a long term 'business as usual' service network. The particular elements of the service model that influenced the STW approach were: • The need for use of a common IT system across all enhanced health check provision for recording of patient information • Allowing for immediacy of access by GPs to information from the EHC, and appropriate follow up; • Enhanced Health check providers would benefit from the ability to track the movement of patients to different practices within the CCG and beyond; • The need for the proposed clinical fellow role to work across services to coordinate pathways and encourage uptake of services, as well as provide clinical and quality oversight for the community-based ECH service. • The likely need for the CCG, PCNs and other partners to have flexibility in the service model to adapt to changing priorities within the North Kensington Recovery programme, and the transition to new integrated models of care. • The need to develop sustainable and cost effective services as the North Kensington recovery progresses. By delivering the service through the GP Federation, the CCG will be commissioning a service offer with no material changes in service and access for Grenfell-affected communities.
