Services

Hillingdon Rapid Response Service provides a single point of contact for adult patients experiencing a health crisis who could be safely cared for in the community instead of being admitted to hospital.

This service is available every day from 9am to 12.30am.

The Brent Rapid Response Team provides admission avoidance in the community which supports expert clinical assessment and interventions to patients requiring urgent care and assessment.

Office hours are Monday to Sunday 8.00am to 10.30pm.

The Ealing Rapid Response Service provides admission avoidance in the community which supports expert clinical assessment and interventions to patients requiring urgent care and assessment at home. The service does not initiate planned interventions and should not be used in advance of other service like District Nursing and Marie Curie to provide care to patients in receipt of palliation.  The team can offer assessment and interventions where there is an urgent need for clinical support outside of the operating times for planned services which includes out of hours’ symptom management and assessment.

Patients can be referred to the service via the GP, 111 or by communicating with the Ealing Community Partners (ECP) Referrals Hub via telephone.
