The UCLPartners-Primrose framework (also known as UCLP-Primrose) has been developed to transform care for people with severe mental illness (SMI) and to reduce the major health inequalities this population face. It has three simple components:
- Risk stratification and search tools – to identify patients at highest risk or not engaged with care
- Support to improve the annual SMI physical health check including clinical review to best treat the most important risk factors (e.g. Blood pressure and lipids)
- Materials and training for offering structured behaviour change interventions and peer support to ensure both physical and mental health improvements.
