Secondary Care
Reducing unnecessary A&E attendance, improving elective surgery and optimising patient flow.
Hospital Services across the Globe are facing ever mounting pressures caused by an ageing population and increasing long-term chronic health conditions. For the NHS, there is no quick fix, services are underfunded, particularity nursing and social care, leaving patients feeling let down and frustrated.
Direct Access Healthcare support the Hospital sector by changing the way demand is generated in the primary care sector. By treating patients within their local community setting, chronic conditions can be managed at home or within a Community Pharmacy.
Patients that do present to Hospitals need to be treated effectively and discharged quickly, to do this community and social care services need to improve.
We bring together clinicians, nurses, clinical pharmacists, social care providers and local commissioners and together identify those patient pathway’s causing the highest delays in Hospital discharges.
By combining key areas such as theatres, pharmacy, and social care, new and effective services can be commissioned ensuring patient flow is greatly improved.
