Bedfordshire Hospitals Foundation Trust is an anchor organisation in the BLMK Integrated Care System. The Bedfordshire Care Alliance (BCA) is a collaborative of health and care providers working across the county of Bedfordshire to reduce inequalities and drive up improvements in population health outcomes. The BCA and BLMK ICB have both identified palliative and end of life care as a priority area. There is a recognition across system partners that we need to improve how we coordinate our services and also how we work together to avoid crisis hospital admissions. The BCA working group is developing a new model of care with our hospice collaborative and community partner organisations to support development of a coordination service and Gold virtual ward as well as an unscheduled care hub to support calls before hospital conveyance. This post holder will be key to shaping further developments and building a team of medical expertise to work across acute, community and hospice services.
