The Integrated Transfer of Care (ITOC) Team is a dynamic and multi-skilled team consisting of nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and Assistant Practitioners. We also work in alignment with social services and other Locala community services.
Our purpose is to support a safe and timely hospital discharge of people who are medically fit, and no longer need hospital care, to a place more suitable to the persons needs. Assessments and care provision can then be tailored to support people to regain strengths and skills so that they can live as independently as possible.
The ITOC model aims to support better outcomes for people leaving hospital by:
* Reducing the time people spend in hospital when they no longer need acute care
* Assessing people in a more appropriate environment than the hospital
* Providing multidisciplinary reablement and rehabilitation plans
* The model also enables the urgent care system to prioritise acute hospital care for those people who need it
There Are Two Teams Within The Service:
* The Hospital Discharge Team identify people who have onward care needs and then make necessary arrangements for discharge to one of the two pathways within the Recovery hub service
* Home First and Bedded Pathway is the default pathway for people leaving hospital and should be the first consideration for everyone. The team will work with the individual and determine if support is required to return home and arrange the necessary support for discharge.
