Utilisation of the health and social care system by the over 65s population: a system dynamics study
Utilisation of the health and social care system by the over 65s population: a system dynamics study
This paper focuses on a system dynamics simulation approach modelling the flow of frail elderly
patients in health and social care systems in the South of England, UK. A system dynamics model of
this pathway is designed that enables testing and informs redesign of the pathway to enhance
integrated working between health and social care agencies leading to reduced number of acute
hospital admissions and fewer delayed transfer of care. Given the complexity of the model, a number
of different scenarios are considered

Abstract
This paper focuses on a system dynamics simulation approach modelling the flow of frail elderly
patients in health and social care systems in the South of England, UK. A system dynamics model of
this pathway is designed that enables testing and informs redesign of the pathway to enhance
integrated working between health and social care agencies leading to reduced number of acute
hospital admissions and fewer delayed transfer of care. Given the complexity of the model, a number
of different scenarios are considered
