Below is an overview for each borough that outlines how each CCG borough team has worked with local health and care partners to support and provide care for our communities. From April 2021 we will be refreshing our Local Health and Care Plans in each borough, building on our collaborative working during the past year and what we have learned about how we provide services for our communities, particularly those who suffer from health inequalities. Croydon Croydon has been one of the areas most affected by Covid-19 in the capital. The strength of our response has been built on the commitment of our workforce and the success of our partnership working in the borough. ‘One Croydon’ is our borough level partnership between the NHS in Croydon, Croydon Council and Age UK Croydon, originally set up to help tackle the challenges of an ageing population but now working to integrate health and social care for people of all ages across the borough. Uniquely for the local NHS, we also have a single management team across Croydon Health Services NHS Trust and the borough team of the CCG, led by Matthew Kershaw, our place-based leader for health. Croydon’s Elective Centre – a ‘hospital within a hospital’ The Croydon Elective Centre (CEC) at Croydon University Hospital provides a Covid safe zone for planned care and treatment. With restricted access to other parts of the hospital, the CEC provides robust infection control and Covid screening of patients and staff. This has put Croydon in a good position to avoid increasing further delays for patients for their elective care. The centre has meant that: • More than 3,700 activities are currently ongoing at Croydon University Hospital delivered within 18 weeks. Annual Report and Accounts 2020/21 | 43
