The community services including as part of the redesign work
Over the last few months we have started the process of redesigning a range of community services, which will be completed over the next five years. They are services provided by Leicestershire Partnership Trust which are:
- District nursing services – which provide home-based patients with ongoing nursing care for long-term conditions or end-of-life care, with treatments such as wound care and continence care.
- Intensive Community Support (ICS) – a ‘virtual ward’ providing healthcare services in a patient’s own home.
- Community hospital beds (including stroke beds)
- Community physiotherapy services (not including MSK physiotherapy).
- Community stroke rehabilitation service.
- Primary care co-ordinators – who work in hospitals to support staff to help patients home as quickly as possible once they are ready to leave hospital.
