AHPs working differently: Integrated Community Care Teams

Integrated Community Care Teams are based in localities aligned with General Practitioner practice clusters. The multi-professional teams are based within GP premises where possible and monthly MDT meetings occur to discuss patients with the whole team and GPs. Previously Physiotherapy and Occupational therapy for community patients were based together in one building covering a large demographic area of Cheshire West while other services were in localities and different offices which meant limited communication between staff, often duplication and multiple visits to the same patients.Part of the AHPs working differently case study series.
