NHS North East London in collaboration with Health Navigator and UCLPartners have launched a new, three-year programme, providing preventative care for patients with long-term conditions. This comes at a time when urgent and emergency care services in North East London are facing unprecedented pressure and demand is at an all-time high.
Through advanced AI screening technology and targeted, phone-based clinical coaching, patients at high risk of needing unplanned emergency care will be identified and offered personalised support from healthcare professionals trained in delivering preventative care and self-management techniques.
The initiative is designed to identify and better support people with long-term conditions, like asthma, by taking a proactive and preventative approach to healthcare delivery.
Forecasting models estimate that the programme will save 26,673 unplanned bed days in North East London hospitals across the three years of the programme, with an anticipated reduction of 13,000 A&E attendances annually.
