Cardiovascular disease is recognised as a silent killer, with 4.8 m living in the UK undiagnosed. The condition is highly manageable with medication. Looking for a way to combat this lack of awareness, NHSEI wanted to test a new model of care. Community pharmacists would provide free blood pressure checks for those over 40. People with hypertension would then be referred to their GP for management.
To deliver the national Maternity Transformation Programme (MTP) NHSE/I looked for appropriate partners. SCW was asked to support the development of their personalisation and choice workstream.
With consistent messaging and sharing good practice, our communications and engagement team helped to minimise the impact of COVID-19 across Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West (BOB). Establishing a communications network and coordinating a system-wide COVID-19 response resulted in clear messaging between key stakeholders and the general public.
Delivery of urgent and emergency care (UEC) services in Hampshire, Isle of Wight (HIOW) and Surrey Heath was fragmented with separately operating 111 contracts. To meet the national requirements to join up the system a new type of contract was introduced, with the support of the SCW contracting team. The aim was to provide a more integrated experience and a better service for patients.
In May 2020 there was serious concern within NHSE/I around the potential for a high prevalence of flu during the coronavirus pandemic.

To help meet the NHS Long Term Plan objective for 75% of all cancers diagnosed at an early stage, we created user-friendly reporting. This offers easy accessibility and usability in the context required for Primary Care Networks.
Kent and Medway ICS Partnership’s core objective was to deliver integrated person-centred care. Social inequalities were a particular focus. They needed advanced intelligence to achieve this. Only through the use of integrated data would they find the insight they needed. Insight to focus on their challenges of wellbeing, prevention, and targeted personal care models.
The NHS Long Term Plan (LTP) committed to strengthening the general practice workforce through supporting the recruitment of 26,000 additional roles and more than 6,000 GPs into General Practice. Achieving this commitment will require some innovative solutions. SCW was asked to support the challenge.
In 2020, SW Cancer Alliances commissioned SCW to create an online data entry tool and to develop the prostate cancer dashboard in a Power BI format. The purpose being to improve current prostate cancer diagnostic pathways and reduce variation across the South West of England.
Our IMS Regional Improving Immunisation Uptake Support Team helped Greater Manchester Partnership identify housebound individuals who required delivery of the COVID-19 vaccination at home, helping them achieve an overall uptake percentage of greater than 90% in age groups 70+.
System partners and regulators in Sussex were dissatisfied with the constant struggles and entrenched views in their historic assertive transactional contract management.
