  4. Consultation told us… • We needed to join people up into one team • That we should not create a bolt on team • Needs to be a neighbourhood model • To enhance existing knowledge, skills and practice, building confidence and resilience of the local workforce • To make the model sustainable • GP’s wanted to remain responsible medical officer for patients

  5. ICST Principles • To provide safe, effective, person centred support to enable people to remain safely at home for as long as possible • When someone admitted to hospital support the person to return home as soon as possible • To support older people with complex health and social care needs to have their community care assessments carried out in their own home if possible

  7. Delivered with a smile and a sense of humour! No way can we go back Even during the night-amazing much better continuity of care It came at the right time A huge weight off my mind I was really impressed how everybody got together to do things We thought this was a fob off – how wrong could we have been It was no effort for me He is getting back to being independent Makes such a difference to work with the physiotherapist I was terrified to go to sleep – that has been a lifeline for me She listened to me-she understood it This is the future

  8. In progress: • Adopted across NHS Lanarkshire • “Shared Care “ for tier 3 patients • Improve use of 3rd sector • Direct links with A&E and Scottish Ambulance service • Step down beds in Care homes • Co Location • Scottish Health and Social care integration • Continue to listen to older people and their carers!
