We are rated - Good by the Care Quality Commission and are ranked among the top employers in London. Community healthcare is our focus and our passion, encompassing several London Boroughs and the outer counties.

The Hospital at Home service will provide intensive hospital level care for acute conditions that normally require an acute hospital bed, in a patient's home for a short episode through multidisciplinary healthcare teams. The service will take appropriate patients out of hospital early to help release capacity in the hospital, deliver appropriate care and interventions and prevent unnecessary admission or attendance at hospital. The service is delivered by a team of specially trained registered professionals including GPs who visit each patient in their home to deliver the care they need.
