Description

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust is embarking upon an exciting project to develop community respiratory and frailty services under the auspices of the NHS Hospital @ Home programme, the aim being to reduce the dependence of patients and other agencies upon acute sector beds. Other specialities may also be added to the scope of works during the contract period.

Total Quantity or Scope

The Somerset Virtual Ward will commence shortly. The team will provide support for both early hospital discharge and admissions avoidance, undertake a variety of interventions to support patients, including home assessment, telephone/video contact and the application of digital monitoring systems to manage a caseload. The team will link seamlessly with colleagues in primary care, secondary care, and other developing elements of the Hospital @ Home service, so providing virtual ward support for patients who would otherwise be in hospital. The contract will commence in early 2023, with a view to full roll out of the system by mid-2023. It is envisaged that following on from a successful pilot the system will become a staple of the hospital systems until at least 2025.
