Homecare Medicines -

Towards a Vision for The Future

In November 2010 the Chief Pharmaceutical Officer at the Department of Health asked Mark Hackett, CEO, University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust to undertake a review of the homecare medicines supply and associated services in England.

As a leading provider of Home Healthcare services in the UK, Evolution Homecare welcomes the focus on our industry.  Home and community based healthcare is highly rated by patients and covers a wide range of therapy areas.  It can help support patients with chronic conditions where often the only alternative is more hospital.  It can also relieve NHS capacity pressure, deliver important cost savings and better treatment outcomes

Evolution Homecare supports the focus on wider industry collaboration and innovation within the report.  We continue to work with and alongside the NHS to drive service development and innovation.

Evolution Homecare welcome any opportunity to standardise and improve contractual arrangements.  As part of the NCHA trade association and an individual company we would welcome opportunity to debate and agree clear, consistent and relevant KPI’s with our NHS stakeholders.

Evolution Homecare whole-heartedly support strong clinical and corporate governance.
