Description

The Enhanced health in care homes (EHCH) framework is for primary care networks (PCNs) and providers and commissioners of community health and social care services.

It guides the commissioning of and delivery arrangements for health and social care services in collaboration with care homes, so that the entire system works together to provide personalised care, improve outcomes and promote independence for people living in care.

It recognises the life course of people who live in a care home and promotes the ethos of living, ageing and dying well.

Sussex Community Foundation Trust have an important part to play in ensuring this framework is successful and alongside our established Care Home Matrons (CHM) an important and exciting element of EHCH is to introduce telemetry opportunities into the care homes both residential and nursing homes.
