Implementing a new organizational model placing humanity at the heart

Launched in 2018, the TICC (Transforming Integrated Care in the Community) project’s objective has been to implement and evaluate a new organisational model of homebased care services in the 2 Seas area (United Kingdom, Belgium and France). For over 4 years now, partners have been creating systemic changes in health and social care by implementing this model.

Inspired by the Dutch Buurtzorg system, this model for integrated care at home relies on self-managing teams of carers and nurses, based at a neighborhood level and handling each aspect of care, ensuring their financial sustainability. This model has led to a significant decrease in back-office needs, a shift from the traditional manager to a coach whose role is to provide advice to ensure the team’s autonomy. For patients, this means a provision of health and care services at home at a lower price but with higher quality intervention, resulting in fewer unplanned hospital admissions.

TICC partners are looking forward to sharing their experiences and learning, as well as reflecting on placing humanity at the heart of our services!
