The PCN works with Manchester Case Management to provide a service to support GPs in their management of patients by offering home visits. 

The visits can include:

• Observations of respiratory rate
• Observations of Heart rate
• O2 saturations
• Blood Pressure recording
• Temperature recording
• Blood sugars recording
• Chest examination
• Consciousness/capacity
• Undertaking of bloods and swabs
• Assessment of general well being.

Referrals are taken from discussions at practice MDTs, direct referrals and following Acute Home Visiting Support Service (AHVS) visits.
