Re-imagining Planned Care is a programme running across both West and North Northamptonshire. Both Northampton and Kettering General Hospitals are involved in the Programme, and more can be found here:

Re-imagining Planned Care together

The Programme aims to tackle the following challenges:

1. Long waits with patient’s conditions deteriorating during delays.

1. Care not always delivered in a local or convenient location for patients.

1. Limited coordination of care, meaning multiple appointments that patients may struggle to make, often with more than one service involved.

1. Patients not feeling like they understand or getting what they need from some of the appointments they attend.

1. Inequalities in access, experience, and outcomes.

Organisations and individuals can help assist the onboarding process by completing or circulating 2 surveys, both of which should take between 5 and 7 minutes to complete.
