Right care, right place, right time

Connect is passionate about improving the lives for patients living with MSK conditions.
With a firm focus on delivering the right care in the right place at the right time, Connect is determined to raise the quality and efficiency of MSK and pain community service provision across whole systems.

Our innovative model of care and infrastructure minimises waste, using performance data to achieve 30% service efficiency across our newly mobilised contracts, reducing NHS patients’ average waiting times from 10-12 weeks to just 2-4 days for first contact with a physiotherapist, enabling better outcomes and relieving increasing pressures on primary and secondary care.
