AnnotationIntermediate care is a set of services which cross existing boundaries, providing care for people who no longer require accommodation and support in hospital, yet are still in need of temporary care to get back to normal living. The author describes facilities provided by Hanover Housing Association's Up & About intermediate care service at two locations. Poppyfields at St Neots in Cambridgeshire, an extracare scheme, works in partnership with Huntingdonshire Primary Care Trust (PCT). Cotswold and the Vale Primary Care Trust has developed 16 sheltered housing units providing intermediate care at St Peter's Court in Cirencester, Gloucestershire, Hanover's first Up & About facility.
