HomeLink Healthcare
HomeLink Healthcare is a clinically-led organisation providing safe, high-quality Hospital at Home services to NHS patients. By working in partnership with hospitals and consultants we can prevent some people being admitted to hospital and enable others to come home more quickly.
Our Hospital at Home services can prevent some people being admitted to hospital and enable others to come home more quickly.
Our highly skilled multi-disciplinary nursing and therapeutic teams can deliver safely a range of interventions in the patient’s home, seven days a week. We use remote patient monitoring technologies. These provide effective monitoring and data-driven learning for the well-being of patients and effectiveness of the health system.
Our services:
- Offer patients more choice
- Free up hospital ward capacity
- Improve patient flow
- Reduce delayed discharges
We do this by working flexibly through the following clinical pathways:
- Virtual wards: Patients who are medically stable can come out of hospital sooner to continue their pathway to full recovery in the place they call home, rather than in hospital. This may include nursing and/or physiotherapy care.
- Early supported discharge: Patients who are medically stable can come out of hospital sooner to continue their pathway to full recovery in the place they call home, rather than in hospital. This may include nursing and/or physiotherapy care.
- Reablement: Using a person-centred approach, individuals learn or re-learn the skills necessary to be able to engage in activities/occupations that are important to them.
- Admission avoidance: Active treatment by healthcare professionals in the patient’s home for a condition that otherwise would require acute hospital in-patient care, always for a limited time period.
