Framework for enhanced health in care homes (EHCH)

The framework for enhanced health in care homes
NHS England 29 September 2016
  • The new model for care homes is based on activity from six vanguards, using a set of evidence-based interventions which are designed to be delivered within and around a care home in a coordinated manner in order to make the biggest difference to its residents.
  • Within these six vanguard areas, care homes are working closely with the NHS, local authorities, the voluntary sector, carers and families to optimise the health of their residents. 
  • See framework documents for all new care models here.
