The Trust now has teams of advanced clinicians working in the community who can respond within two hours if someone’s health or wellbeing suddenly deteriorates at home, which will avoid the need for an ambulance and prevent hospital admissions.

Our advanced nurses and therapists can provide assessment, treatment, support and a two hour rapid response for registered patients who are aged 18 and over and at risk of a hospital admission.

The service is led by community matrons with advanced skills in supporting patients in crisis and is supported by nursing staff, therapists and other professionals.

This service will be available to residents across Liverpool, Knowsley, South Sefton and Southport and Formby.
