description

  1. Background;

The Camden Integrated Care Service (CICS) was set up in April 2012 as a pilot with the aim of addressing system challenges. These challenges highlight the need for;

-Different health and social care services need to be designed to be delivered in an integrative collaborative manner in order to maximise health outcomes
-More patient focussed methods of delivery
-Delivery of specialist and more integrated support in the community

CICS aims to provide patients with access to secondary care clinicians in a community environment. Central to the service model are clinics bringing specialist clinicians to treat patients in a community setting and weekly MDT meetings specifically for COPD patients. CICS aims to offer practices and patients a responsive service that can be locally tailored to patient needs with the potential to manage co-morbidities in the same location and at the same time, with cross cutting services on site to further support individual needs.

CICS referrals can be made for patients with:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD)
COPD (and COPD MDT)
Heart failure
Frailty
Memory
Epilepsy
2.The Clinical Review;

The aim of the clinical review is to;

-Understand whether the services within CICS are meeting the needs of the patients and outcomes anticipated of CICS
-Identify the challenges and benefits of delivering integrated service and services in the community
-Highlight the relevant trends (to include service delivery and impacts on local health economy)
-Identify learning and best practice to inform the Camden Local strategy and other transformation projects
-Make recommendations to inform the future commissioning of each of the CICS services and utilisation of the centre space.
-Gather and assess views of clinicians and patients on the service
