Vulnerable Complex Families

Merseycare NHS Foundation Trust

The project is to test a scalable approach to identifying and supporting individuals with high levels of health and social complexity at a household level.
Specifically, the pilot will:
•    Identify people with learning disability who are part of complex households
•    Compare identified individuals with current caseloads
•    Enable proactive outreach to those not currently receiving support
•    Inform development of a targeted, multi-agency model of care
This supports Mersey Care’s neighbourhood health approach and wider system priorities around proactive, preventative care and reducing inequalities.
