Acute demand is becoming a key concern for every Health System with Acute Hospital Bed Days being a system level measure for most organisations. Acute Demand Networks are more common and aim to identify programmes of work to reduce ED Attendances and Acute Hospital Admissions.
Managing acute demand, however, is complex and requires a whole of system approach that involves both the inpatient and outpatient elements of care. Areas that are likely to have impact include: the management of long-term conditions, primary care hospital avoidance programmes, provision of urgent access to primary care, ambulance diversion pathways, improving discharges and understanding readmissions.
Our Whole of System Improvement Group is new in 2017 and has been developed to meet an
increasing need in healthcare — improving care delivered across the continuum of care - especially where the community and hospital settings intersect.
