NHS Barnsley CCG : Barnsley REspiratory Assessment and THErapy(BREATHE) service

Tender description

NHS Barnsley Clinical Commissioning Group (BCCG) is committed to commissioning high quality, sustainable health care which puts the people of Barnsley first. Building on work that has already taken place to bring together multi-disciplinary community services with general practice into something called Neighbourhood Teams (NT) we now wish to align specialist community respiratory services to this model. We are procuring a new approach to providing care for adults with respiratory conditions. The new service will be known as Barnsley REspiratory Assessment and THErapy (BREATHE) in the Community - The Integrated Specialist Respiratory Team within the Neighbourhood Team Model. The service will be a community respiratory, out of hospital based service with a main principle of seeing and treating patients in the community, supporting them to stay well at home. The principle of self-care and health coaching should run throughout delivery.
