Referrals
Referrals will be accepted from GPs and professionals in secondary, health and social care.
Criteria: People aged 16 and over, registered with a GP in Redbridge. People who have a specific nursing need that requires the expertise of a nurse. Referrals will only be accepted if the patient is housebound, for example if they are only able to leave home by ambulance or there is a nursing need that makes a home visit more appropriate such as palliative care.
