Evercare/United Healthcare and the NHS

This project involves nine PCTs working with United Healthcare to implement the EverCare model of proactive care for the most vulnerable. In America this model has been successful in keeping older people healthy and out of hospital by investing in services provided in the community.

An enhanced nursing role is at the heart of the EverCare model and these nurses work closely with GPs, hospital doctors and other care staff as part of a primary care team to deliver integrated care.
