NHS Health Scotland is a WHO Collaborating Centre for Health Promotion and Public Health Development. Summary In 2016 NHS Fife and NHS Forth Valley began to pilot a new GP Community Hub (GPCH) Fellowship model aimed at bridging the gap between primary and secondary care for frail elderly patients and those with complex needs. NHS Health Scotland commissioned a baseline evaluation to capture the early learning from implementation of the model. The following summarises the key findings from the evaluation. The evaluation was conducted between February and June 2017 when the model of delivery in the two pilot sites was still evolving. The findings may therefore not reflect the ways in which the model was subsequently developed and is currently being delivered in the two areas.
