West Kent Capacity Model Demonstrator

West Kent Capacity Model Demonstrator

This model demonstrator was developed to enable West Kent CCG to understand the capacity requirements across health and social care if alternative community based capacity were to be provided.  The focus on the >50 population, and on unscheduled admissions to hospital were selected because they represent a significant proportion of the current use of hospital beds, and because there is evidence to suggest that if alternatives were provided then reliance on these beds could be reduced.
