Cambs GP Network are now offering a Home Visiting Service for housebound Diabetic patients who have been referred to us by their GP Surgery. The service is a Health Care Assistant led service targeting those patients who have not had their 8 care processes completed.

​

As part of the Diabetic Review the HCA will perform a foot check, blood tests, height and weight checks, blood pressure checks and obtain a urine sample.

​

The team will record their findings and escalate urgent medical concerns back to the patients GP Practice on the day and any other escalations sent back through the discharge summary.

​

This service is proving to be a valuable service for patients within the CGPN footprint.
