Neighbourhood Care Team (Tower Hamlets)

We support people to recover from a health problem, to gain stability and independence if they have a long term health condition, or to provide end of life care to patients and their families.

We provide direct nursing care and personal care such as wound management, medication management, symptom management and other specialist nursing interventions. We can advise on preventative strategies,  and identify interventions and activities that will improve your psychological and physical wellbeing. 

We will co-ordinate your care and with you agree key goals that we will all work towards.

Involving Others in Your Care

We will liaise with other healthcare professionals whose expertise and skills could enhance your care and rehabilitation such as physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, palliative care nurses, and other specialist health professionals. We will work closely with your GP so that 
everyone is up to date on the care you are receiving and your progress.

This is a nurse-led team which works closely with patient's GPs.
