Surrey Downs Health & Care

Home First supports the approach of “why not home, why not today?” Wherever possible patients should be supported home for ongoing assessments where this is not possible alternative pathways are available. Staying in hospital for longer than necessary has a negative impact on patient outcomes and ensuring patients are given the chance to continue their lives at home is vital for their long-term wellbeing .

The Recovery @home service forms an integral and essential part of Discharge to Assess, being available to provide timely care and support to facilitate discharge from hospital and onward assessment and identification of need. The team will work closely with health and social care services.

The service provides a 7 day / week service from 8am to 8pm working across both the community and hospital settings. Staff are required to work flexibly over the full week.

Surrey Downs Health and Care deliver care closer to people’s own communities through our Primary Care Networks, Community Hospitals, Specialist Services and our innovative partnership of local NHS organisations.

Surrey Downs Health and Care has a track record of providing person centered care that goes beyond organisational boundaries to do what is best for the individual. This partnership includes:

• The three GP federations GP Health Partners, Dorking Health Care and Surrey Medical Network representing practices that operate in the Surrey Downs area
•  CSH Surrey
•  Epsom and St Helier’s University Hospitals NHS Trust
•  Surrey Council County

Historically, there have been boundary lines between the organisations that provide care to people in their homes, in GP surgeries and in hospitals, but we have always been united in our mission to provide great care to the people who need us.

It’s on those grounds that the Surrey Downs Health and Care was formed – we want local people to receive the care that they need in the right environment. By bringing together our expertise, we can improve patient care and enable local people to access the right support, care and treatment more easily than ever before.

In bringing this partnership together, we are working to the same set of values that will translate into better care for our residents.
