Background of the service: There are currently 15 Older Peoples Care Homes within the London Borough of Lewisham with 599 beds. There are also 5 Extra Care Housing facilities that have 161 Beds. These Homes have been supported by Primary Care through the following means: • Core GP services through registration at local GP Practices • An Enhanced Primary Care Support to Care Homes contract, currently held by the Lewisham GP Federation • The 2020/2021 PCN Network DES additionally introduced new support for Care Homes from PCNs Some of the service requirements published in the PCN Network DES duplicated the requirements in the local contract. As a result, a revised specification has been developed to remove this duplication and update the service model to reflect the new Enhanced Health in Care Homes Framework, working through a single contract and provider. This new APMS primary care contract will provide core General Medical Services together with an enhanced service specification of medical support for nursing home residents, residential care home residents and extra care housing tenants. In addition, the contract is expected to provide an advice and support service that will include residents and staff of mental health and learning disability residential homes within the borough - this will be scoped and co-developed by the provider working in collaboration with key local stakeholders and service users.
