Attend Anywhere clinics

Our ESNEFT consultants hold Attend Anywhere virtual clinics with people in their own homes and the residents of 21 care homes in the Colchester and Tendring area.  The service is run in partnership with Anglian Community Enterprise (ACE).

We may invite you to this clinic if you:

• have had a recent admission to hospital
• are requiring increasing input from your GP
• are starting to fall or having an increase in falls
• have reduced mobility
• are on several medications
• are experiencing unexplained weight loss and/or loss of appetite
• are experiencing cognitive impairment – new or existing – and low mood.

The ACE community physiotherapist goes in person to the care homes and helps to set up the Attend Anywhere video link to the hospital consultant. The consultant and the physiotherapist are then able to carry out a full assessment of you and, hopefully, avoid admitting you to hospital.

This team is also able to offer this service to older people who live in their own homes, for example if you are are housebound or find it extremely difficult to travel and do not have computer access.

There are also Attend Anywhere virtual clinics for older people who live in their own homes and use computers, or have a friend or relative who can help set up the Attend Anywhere link to the consultant and so do not need the physiotherapist to attend in person.

You will be referred to our services by:

• your GP
• the Frailty Team at the hospital following emergency admission
• community physiotherapists
• occupational therapists
• care home staff
