Bridgend Hospital to Home Service - Linking health and housing: Better outcomes for older people
This case study produced by Care & Repair Cymru showcases the work of Bridgend County's Hospital to Home Service that works with healthcare professionals to identify the needs of older patients before they are discharged.
Since the launch of the service in 2014, it has helped over 4,500 patients, improved discharge times from over a week to just 24 – 48 hours and had an extremely positive impact on the hospital by freeing up beds on wards.
