Primary Integrated Community Services (PICS): Acute Home Visiting Service
The Acute Home Visiting Service is a responsive and effective home visiting service for patients that prevents them attending accident and emergency and relieves GP workload.
Any housebound or care home patient requiring an acute same day visit from a GP was seen by a highly skilled and experienced advanced nurse practitioner, with non-medical prescribing skills, highly experienced in primary care with good skills and competencies in urgent conditions, including acute respiratory and cardiac conditions.
The Acute Home Visiting Service was piloted Newark in 2017, providing support to seven general practices in the locality serving 76,000 patients.
