Here is a list of activities other HAH services have used to optimise taking the lead to ensure sustainability.
- Proposing a business plan and “selling it” to commissioners;
- Taking the lead and providing services (sometimes without a great deal of scrutiny from commissioners)
- Having (or recruiting) a trustee or executive leader with a reputation for excellence, meaning they are trusted to use funding well
- securing NHS Continuing Healthcare (NHS CHC) funding to provide or part-fund services
