2 stories · 1 council

Hounslow Council is discussing a new model of care to improve patient experience, reduce hospital readmissions, and provide a single point of contact.

Hounslow Council's Health and Adults Care Scrutiny Panel met in November 2025 to discuss a new model of care, aiming to tackle "revolving door" hospital readmissions and provide patients with a single point of contact. The panel, chaired by Councillor Farah Kamran, is exploring ways to improve patient experience and support carers.

This new model of care seeks to address systemic fragmentation within the healthcare system, building on discussions from an informal meeting held in September 2025. The council's broader policy aims to provide more holistic and integrated support for residents.
