Home Recovery

Rapid Response is a short-term care program, supporting efficient & effective recovery at home.

The aim of Rapid Response is to re-enable and rehabilitate the patient from their own home.

Re-enabling people to independence.

Designed to relieve pressure within hospitals during challenging periods, by rapidly arranging care for those who are medically fit for discharge and require a pathway out of acute settings. This includes those perceived to have rehab potential and unplanned care.

Increasing transfer flow from hospitals, to abolish bed blocking once and for all!

27% of clients have been discharged with no further need for a POC.

41% have been discharged with reduced care needs or to a long-term care plan/provider.

28% of clients have been discharged and referred to either a nursing/care home, the reablement team, palliative care or admitted into hosptial.
