@Dochayter @Devon_NHSI Well said!
I'm forever grateful for life-saving surgery in hospital, 5yrs ago. I only started to get well 10 days later, back home.
Our job is to help people live where they want, with those they want to be with, for as long as possible.

@Devon_NHSI @chwalko @NHSEnglandCHS @JamesCSanderson @AmandaPritchard It was a pleasure to share our work on better 'home first' discharges and testing models of proactive care (reducing admissions in the first place), alongside PCNs, hospital and council partners. More to come on this! #interfaces
