What You Need to Know

Team Up Derbyshire is an ambitious programme in Derby and Derbyshire that aims to create one team across health and social care who see all housebound patients in a neighbourhood.
This team will provide anticipatory (also known as ‘proactive’), planned and urgent care. If someone is housebound and needs a service, this team will deliver it. 
This team is not a new or ‘add on’ service – it is a teaming up of existing services – with general practice, community, mental healthcare, adult social care and the voluntary and community sector all working together.
The overall aim is to keep people safe at home and provide the best, most seamless, care, keeping people out of hospital wherever possible. Team Up Derbyshire aims to ensure that person-centred care services are provided at the right time, in the right place, by the right person. As a result, people should be able to live well, for longer.
Team Up Derbyshire (including Ageing Well) is being advanced locally by the primary care networks across Derby and Derbyshire – with the support of local place alliances and all health and care organisations.
