Rubicon’s work with Surrey and Borders continues with the recent approval of a investment case to create a satellite hub for the trust’s community services, in the Spelthorne area of Surrey. The satellite will complement the community hub opened by the trust in 2018 and which Rubicon had provided business writer support for,
We have recently completed a refresh of this trust’s estate strategy working alongside WT Partnership. This recently merged large acute trust needed a new estate strategy to reflect its emerging clinical and corporate strategy which in turn, reflects opportunities arising from the merger. We had previously worked on phase one of the strategy in 2018 and delivered phase two over summer 2019.
Rubicon has been appointed by Barnet, Enfield and Haringey to work with the trust to develop a business case for a programme of investment across the trust’s inpatient estate. The work will complete in January 2020.
Working with our partners from Tricordant, we are about to start developing several business cases for West Kent CCG. The business case will build upon the work we did in 2018 and will set out plans to deliver between three and five community hubs across the west of Kent.
Rubicon is working with partners from WT Partnership to review EETF funding bids on behalf of NHSE and is separately working on ETTF bids for a GP in Hastings and for Greenwich CCG.
We have been appointed, via the Crown Commercial Services management consulting framework, to work with the South Kent CCG, local GPs, Kent Community Health, NHS Property Services and local town, district and county councils on plans to build a new community health and wellbeing hub in New Romney. The hub will bring together a wide range of statutory sector commissioned services into new purpose built facilities. This will enable the better integration of health and care services, as well as assisting in making out of hospital and primary care services in the area, more resilient.
Rubicon and Medical Architecture have been working with Dorset HealthCare to explore a one-off opportunity to bring mental health and community health services together on a single site to serve the west of the county. Our work led to the development of a strategic outline case which has been presented to the trust’s board for approval.
Rubicon has recently completed three pieces of financial modelling linked to three different business cases being developed by GSTT.
“This news follows a bid we made to the Department of Health earlier this summer for £30m to support the expansion of the Emergency Department and the purchase of the expansion land next to the hospital to develop other services,” said Chief Executive Nerissa Vaughan.
The Tavistock and Portman NHSFT has appointed Rubicon to write a business case for the redevelopment or reprovision of the foundation trust’s Tavistock Centre. The work will run through to February.
