Description

Stepping Home is a service designed to help people home from hospital or prevent admissions. Unlike other support services Stepping Home tackles all and any housing issues that place residents at risk. Working with a growing range of voluntary and statutory partners we identify and tackle hoarding, disrepair, falls risks, inadequate heating, disconnected services, loneliness, financial abuse, food and fuel poverty, income maximisation and more. The service is built around each patient as their non-medical circumstances are unique. The Stepping Home coordinators are there for the patient journey, that step by step support that ensures trust and ongoing success. The focus is on their home and the problems, dealing with safety and security, community connections, finance and ongoing independence. Stepping Home can ease some of the pressure on health and social care services. It delivers to all the NHS personalisation agenda but particularly reduces pressure on stretched NHS services and helps the health and care system to be more efficient.
