The Acute Covid-19 Virtual Ward
As part of the LCHS and system response to Covid-19 an Acute Virtual Ward model was developed in partnership with colleagues at United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust (ULHT). The model enabled the safe discharge of Covid-19 positive patients out of hospital into their own homes. All patients received an oximeter to monitor their oxygen saturation levels three times per day and their recovery supported by daily clinical review phone calls. Six Covid-19 positive patients were admitted to the v...
Urgent Treatment Centres
The joint delivery with ULHT of temporary Urgent Treatment Centres services at Grantham Hospital in June 2020 was a step forward for partnership working across the Lincolnshire system. Benefits for local patients included a 24/7 walk in service - with the support of NHS 111 – plus more convenient, bookable appointments. The Trust’s network of Urgent Treatment Centres has expanded to include Gainsborough and Spalding, both former Minor Injury Units. A successful bid for £1.8 million to upgrade...

National healthcare policy for the next 10 years is outlined in the NHS Long Term Plan, published in January 2019. Despite the impact of Covid-19 this continues to be the long-term direction that the Lincolnshire Health and Care System is fully aligned to. In the last year Lincolnshire system partners have planned for and moved to creating an Integ...
Supporting everyone in Lincolnshire
To Start Well, Live Well and Die Well through supporting: development before starting school; help in navigating the transition to adulthood; healthy lifestyles; urgent help to deal with accidents or acute illness; working together to manage long term conditions; those who are dying and the people who are close to them.
Lincolnshire's four core ambitions for starting, living and dying well
1. Shifting the emphasis to prevention and self-care; 2. Ensuring people have choice and control over the way their care is planned and delivered; 3. Working together across services to better meet people’s needs and improve their experience of care; and 4. Care closer to home. To deliver the above ambition the system has a number of priorities for patients and the public, our people and the system:
For patients and the public:
Improve cancer screening and outcomes; 1. People only go into acute hospital when care cannot be provided in a community setting; 2. Improve prevention and early detection and intervention for heart disease and breathing problems; 3. Strengthening the partnership between health and social care services to support people with multiple health conditions; 4. Increasing capacity in musculoskeletal services and keeping people well for longer; 5. Healthy babies; 6. Support for new mothers; 7. Impro...
Many of these shorter-term priorities align to the LTP priorities. There is a need for greater focus on them in the coming year:
The Single Oversight Framework (SOF) outlines the approach NHS England takes to overseeing the performance of NHS Trusts and identifying where commissioners and providers may need support. Each Trust receives an overall rating of one to four based on data monitoring and NHSE/I’s judgement of providers’ circumstances across the five themes of qualit...
