Come and join our award-winning team! In June 2023, the FHFT Virtual Frailty Ward (VFW) / Urgent Community Response (UCR) team was nominated for a Parliamentary Healthcare Award and a FHFT Facing the Future Award.

We specialise in managing acute frailty crises, sepsis, and exacerbations of long-term conditions, aiming to reduce unnecessary hospital admissions and promote patient choice in care delivery. Based at Frimley Park Hospital, our team operates across Surrey Heath, Northeast Hampshire, and Farnham, working within the Frimley Health and Care Integrated Board (ICB) framework.

Our team provides an innovative, responsive, and patient-centered service that delivers urgent community response and acute hospital-level treatment in patients' own homes. Our unique hybrid model ensures a rapid, two-hour response time, with referrals received directly from paramedics, GPs, NHS 111, community healthcare professionals, and hospitals. Patients are assessed, diagnosed, and treated in the comfort of their own homes.
