When a person is brought into the Emergency Department, are we thinking the same as them? Are we thinking
- Is the patient leaving home with returning in mind
- What does a patient need to get home?
- What do our healthcare professional partners need to do to help a patient return home
The FRESH model challenges us to take a different approach
- Consider how we handover our patients in clinical environments
- Consider how including additional information about the person can go a long way to impact on outcomes and their future care journey
The FRESH model was first created by the Therapy team at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport. In particular developed by Janice Arnold and Steph Brown
