Closing Soon: NHSE COPD Funding Offer - How Doccla Can Support You

As the deadline for the NHSE COPD funding offer approaches on 19th August, healthcare providers across the UK are scrambling to submit their responses. This funding is a significant opportunity for trusts to enhance their services for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), particularly in adopting innovative technologies that support self-management and remote monitoring.

COPD is a major concern in the UK, affecting around 1.2 million people and being a leading cause of emergency hospital admissions. The NHS Long-Term Plan and the Get It Right First Time (GIRFT) initiative have both highlighted the critical need for better management of respiratory diseases like COPD to reduce hospital stays, readmissions, and mortality rates. With the right technology, healthcare providers can empower patients to manage their condition at home, thereby improving outcomes and reducing the strain on NHS resources.

At Doccla, we specialise in delivering comprehensive virtual ward solutions that can significantly enhance COPD management. Our end-to-end service includes everything from patient onboarding to device management and clinical support, ensuring that your patients receive the best possible care, even when they're not in the hospital.

Why Choose Doccla?

1. Proven Impact: Our solutions have demonstrated tangible benefits across various pathways. For example, our virtual ward services have led to a 29% reduction in emergency admissions within the BLMK Integrated Care Board (ICB) and have saved up to 10,500 clinical hours on respiratory pathways alone​. These results are supported by independent NHS studies, proving the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of our approach.
2. Comprehensive and Scalable Solutions: Doccla offers a fully managed virtual ward service that is both adaptable and scalable. Whether you need support for high-acuity patients or require seamless integration with your existing NHS systems, our platform is designed to meet your needs. With features like real-time monitoring, personalised care plans, and compliance tracking, we ensure that your patients are well-supported throughout their treatment​​.
3. Patient-Centred Approach: Our platform is built with patient engagement in mind. We offer multi-language support, intuitive devices, and a user-friendly app that allows patients to easily manage their condition from home. This not only improves patient satisfaction and adherence but also enables clinicians to monitor their patients’ progress effectively​​.
4. Living Well with COPD Hub: Our innovative Living Well with COPD Hub, launched at NHS Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire, is a prime example of how we can effectively support COPD patients. This hub focuses on encouraging patients to adopt healthy lifestyles and self-management behaviours through personalised consultations with health coaches. Patients receive tailored advice on lifestyle changes that enhance well-being and mitigate symptoms, supporting long-term preventative and proactive care. The hub has been instrumental in helping patients reduce the frequency of exacerbations and avoid unnecessary hospital admissions​​.
