Kent & Medway · Population Frailty Intelligence

Finding older adults at risk
before the system has to respond.

Assistiv Systems builds intelligence tools for the NHS, identifying the Missing Middle: people with emerging frailty who are invisible to existing care pathways, living at home, not yet in crisis, but heading there.

How Assistiv works — data to clinical action
For commissioners & strategy leads
I need to understand risk in my patch — and act on it

Open the live Frailty Heat Map, download a PDF commissioner briefing, and see the economic cost of inaction district by district. Then use the Community Outreach Map to turn geographic risk into a specific action at a specific venue.

Districts at high or critical risk
Where the Missing Middle are. Right now.
Six tools built on open NHS data reveal which districts and neighbourhoods carry the highest hidden risk. No login, no procurement, no identifiers. The eFI tells you where an individual patient is; these tools tell you which direction a whole population is travelling and how fast.
Behind every frail person is a carer. The largest care workforce, and the least seen.
Unpaid carers hold more people out of hospital and residential care than any statutory service. They are also the system's quietest point of failure: when a carer reaches breakdown — through their own illness, exhaustion, or age — the person they support can convert from stable to emergency within days. These two tools make that workforce visible, so commissioners can resource it before it collapses rather than after.

highest heavy-care intensity — the same coastal pattern as frailty
From a postcode to a person, in a place they already trust.
Knowing where risk is concentrated is not enough. These three tools close the loop: narrowing to the right neighbourhoods, generating specific outreach actions at specific venues, and screening individuals once they are in front of a community worker.
Step four · The full pathway
From open data to clinical action. Seven layers.
Find, understand, reach, screen, refer, serve, close the loop. Each layer feeds the next — and the outcomes feed back into the model, so it gets sharper with every cycle.

L2Map
Geographic Frailty Intelligence ↗
FEP composite score for 13 Kent districts. Rural Access Vulnerability Index for 1,065 LSOAs. Carer Burden Index. Discharge delay intelligence. NHS 111 demand. Economic cost of inaction. All in one commissioner-facing map.
Live · Six tools deployed
L3Reach
Community Outreach Action Map ↗
The first tool to close the loop from geographic risk to a specific, non-clinical outreach action. High-risk LSOAs overlaid with community touchpoints — pharmacies, libraries, leisure centres, faith venues — across Kent. Click any venue to see the dominant neighbourhood risks (isolation, falls, fuel poverty, cognitive decline) and generate AI-matched outreach ideas specific to that venue type and risk profile. The output is a place, a problem, and an action, never a person. For social prescribers, community workers, and commissioning strategy leads planning where to go and what to do.

L4Screen
Precision Community Screening — Assistiv Tools ↗
Voice-first frailty assessment. 12 conversational questions. PRISMA-7 and FRAIL Scale scored in real time. Structured clinical referral output. District FEP score injected as context, higher-risk zones trigger lower referral thresholds.
Prototype · assistiv.tools
L5Refer
PCN Referral Pathway
For people identified through screening who need specialist support: a structured referral into Primary Care Network and Social Care services. Domain scores, screening summary and a CGA preparation brief travel with the person, so the frailty team starts informed rather than from zero. Referral thresholds calibrated by district FEP score.
Prototype · In development
L6Serve
Community Services — Assistiv Services ↗
For people identified through screening who fall below the acute threshold: preventative care, passive home safety monitoring, care coordination, and community connections, delivered through Assistiv Services. Person-led from day one, through a warm onboarding conversation. Technology introduced only in response to what the person says they need, always reversible, always on their terms.
Prototype · In development
L7Close
Clinical Triage & Feedback Loop
Screening and referral outcomes fed back into the geographic model — districts where more frailty is found recalibrate the FEP scoring, and the pathway between screening, PCN referral and community services tightens with every cycle. The dataset becomes the competitive advantage.

Three connected tools. One system of care.

Assistiv operates across three integrated platforms. Each addresses a distinct stage of the journey from invisibility to appropriate support, finding people, understanding their needs, and delivering the right response.

Acute pathway

Health and Social Care

People approaching or exceeding the acute threshold are referred directly into NHS or local authority care pathways with the longitudinal data needed for rapid, accurate assessment.

Early intervention pathway

Assistiv Services

People below the acute threshold — managing, but at risk — are supported by Assistiv's platform. Proactive, non-intrusive, and designed to extend independence and defer the need for formal care.
