H53N243 Tel : 090 96 25700 0871038409 andrea.devine@hse.ie Details of Service In line with Sláintecare (2017) and the Department of Health’s Capacity review (2018), a shift in healthcare service provision is now required to place the focus on integrated, person-centred care, based as close to home as possible. In order to enable this, the Integrated Care Programme for the Prevention and Management of Chronic Disease (ICPCD) is supporting the national implementation of a model of integrated care for the prevention and management of chronic disease as part of the Enhanced Community Care Programme (ECC). The Model of Care for the Integrated Prevention and Management of Chronic Disease has a particular focus on preventive healthcare, early intervention and the provision of supports to live well with chronic disease. The investment in the ECC programme will be delivered on a phased basis with a view to national coverage being achieved within a two- to three- year period. Three priority areas have been identified as follows: Structural reform of healthcare delivery within the community with Community Health Networks (CHNs) becoming the basic building blocks for the organisation, management and delivery of community services across the country; Creating Specialist Ambulatory Care Hubs within the community to support primary care management of chronic disease and older people with complex needs; and, Scaling Integrated Care for Older People and Chronic Disease through the recruitment of specialist integrated care teams including Frailty at the Front Door Teams. The focus is on providing an end-to-end pathway that will reduce admissions to acute hospitals by providing access to diagnostics and specialist services in the ambulatory care hubs in a timely manner.
