About Nursing Home Supportive Care
Within Nursing Home Supportive Care (NHCS), we offer services tailored to the unique needs and readiness of each Nursing Home. Alongside End-of-Life care and Advance Care Planning (ACP), we provide additional support through collaborative nursing efforts and specialised assistance in geriatric and psychiatric care.
Our doctors and community nurses collaborate closely with Nursing Home healthcare professionals. Together, we proactively screen and identify residents in need of palliative care, initiate crucial goals of care conversations, and co-manage residents through regular case discussions, reviews, and tele-collaboration.
We also offer capability building through training sessions and ad-hoc tele-support to empower Nursing Home care teams in managing complex cases.
