Benefits of IFD

Heading 2

Bringing our Integrated Front Door (IFD) teams together helps create a smoother patient journey, with services working together to identify the most appropriate care for each person. 

Where appropriate, Hospital at Home can also allow people to receive hospital-level care in familiar surroundings, avoiding an unnecessary hospital admission or supporting an earlier return home. 

In simple terms, IFD is about:

  • getting you to the right service
  • providing the right care
  • involving the right healthcare professionals
  • providing care in the most appropriate place – the right place.
