Haringey Multi-Agency Care and Coordination Team (MACCT)

 

The Multi Agency Care and Coordination Team (MACCT) is a proactive and preventative care service for adults living with frailty or complex long term health care needs.  We work in partnership with Haringey GP practices to identify those who may benefit from our support.

 

We are an integrated team of professionals from multiple disciplines and agencies. The team includes:

 

 

The role of the team is to support patients to maintain health, well-being, independence and self-management of their health conditions. We are the Haringey Hub for Integrated Working.

What do we offer?
As an anticipatory care service we aim to keep people well, work towards their goals and reduce avoidable hospital attendances or crises.

 

Referrals will be triaged by a senior clinician and if accepted may be proposed to MDT teleconference, and or receive a holistic assessment (comprehensive geriatric assessment where appropriate).

We can provide tailored interventions to support the client’s medical, functional, mental health and social care needs. Adopting a patient centred approach, we set goals with our clients and create personalised care and crisis plans.

 

The team can coordinate care needs and will work in partnership with professionals already involved in a client’s care to provide wraparound multi-disciplinary support. We are well placed to link our clients with other services and support they need to make a positive difference to their health and wellbeing.

You can refer people with multiple long term conditions impacting on daily life or people that have frailty with rising risk, and require a multi-disciplinary approach to support to maintain health, well-being and independence.

Though the MACC Team are not an acute service. We aim to triage our referrals within 24 hours (excluding weekends and bank holidays). Following triage, your client will be contacted and assessed dependant on clinician prioritisation (We operate on a 6 week maximum waiting time).

 

If you feel that a person is at immediate risk of hospital admission or imminent care breakdown, please refer to the Rapid Response service via their registered G.P or directly on 0207 288 3670.

 

You can self-refer if you have worked with the team previously you can contact the team to make a self- referral over the phone, we will review your situation and offer advice on the next steps. If you are new to The Multi Agency Care and Coordination Team (MACCT), we will ask your GP to make the referral and to send us some information on your long term health conditions.

 

GPs can refer to service by submitting a completed MACCT referral form. It would be beneficial to also include an EMIS summary or any other relevant documents to provide a more comprehensive overview of the patient’s needs.
