Reducing Unscheduled Hospital Admissions
Reducing the number of avoidable, unscheduled hospital admissions each year is of huge importance to the NHS, given the vast resources these hospital stays consume. Admissions reduction work tends to focus around patients with long term conditions such as COPD, the condition accounting for the greatest number of unscheduled admissions and re-admissions in the UK. Intouch’s Staywell range of self-care education programmes is designed to increase the self management competence of thousands of patients at an extremely affordable cost. Intouch’s info2you Information Prescription System helps to provide an even greater range of supportive and empowering information and advice for patients and carers. Please see also:Latest News
