Please note: This service continues to operate as normal during COVID-19.
We provide care and support which helps people to stay as well as possible for as long as possible in their own homes. We make a big contribution to some of the health priorities for Leeds by reducing:
-
avoidable emergency admissions to hospitals
-
the length of time people stay in hospital (bed days)
-
premature admission to long term care
-
admission to residential and care homes
and
-
supporting patients at the end of life to die in their preferred place of care
-
improving patient or service user experience
What we do
- we make sure people have the right support, at the right time, in the right place from the right person.
- we provide patient-centred health and social care in the community
- we help patients to maximise their potential - if they have complex needs, we work with partner organisations to provide support. This means care is seamless and patients don’t have to repeat their story.
- we are clear about our roles, skills and the experience we bring to the team. We meet regularly; have shared goals for our patients and performance targets. We tackle challenges together.
- we know the local community - this helps us to work effectively with our patients and encourage them to live healthy and active lives.
- we support people to remain in their own homes and live as independently as possible with the best quality of life and living conditions.
- we give patients the information, advice and tools they need to help themselves.
- we promote self-management to restore confidence and reduce hospital admissions, professional visits and dependency on medication.
Who's it for?
