Implementing the Evercare Programme Interim Report - prepared by Evercare on implementation by nine PCTs The Evercare programme has been developed in the USA to improve the quality of life for vulnerable older people. The programme involves developing new ways of working for healthcare professionals and is now being piloted by nine Primary Care Trusts. The focus is on helping older people to maintain their independence, improve their wellbeing and avoid the need to go into hospitals. This report provides an interim review of the pilots. It suggests that the programme and its underlying principles have the potential to improve care in England.

In February 2004, Pfizer Ltd and Haringey TPCT launched an innovative programme designed to provide individualised support for 600 patients within the London borough suffering from diabetes, heart failure and coronary heart disease. This document gives a summary of the aims of this 15-month chronic disease pilot programme jointly funded by NatPaCT’s transformational change programme and Pfizer Ltd.For more information about this pilot programme please contact: Team.Health@haringey.nhs.uk Team Health: A Vision for Chronic Disease Management in Haringey Gerry Taylor, Deputy Director of Health Improvement, Haringey PCT This presentation outlines the vision for chronic disease management in Haringey and describe one of the initiatives in the strategy. The strategy incorporates a tiered approach moving from those who can best manage their own care with their GP to those who have the most difficulty in managing their own health. A key part of this strategy is a partnership project where Haringey TPCT are working with DoH and Pfizer Health Solutions to assess the feasibility and impact of an additional service for those people at the top tier. The programme is based on similar well-evaluated projects in the USA, but this is the first time this specific project will be implemented in the UK. We are therefore carrying out a thorough evaluation of this project and we will highlight some of the issues related to this evaluation. We are just beginning to recruit patients to this project and describe the steps we have taken to get to this stage and when we expect to be able to share the results of this project. |
