Virtual study trip to integrated care in England

نویسنده

  • Nicholas Goodwin
چکیده

Over the last decade in England, there have been numerous attempts to develop new forms of integrated care working between health and social care agencies that have sought to improve the care experiences for older people and those with complex and chronic care needs. However, despite a significant amount of innovation, the care system remains fragmented. This presentation examines how integrated care has developed in the English NHS, including the provision of some key and current examples such as nurse-led case management, joint health and social care teams, and integrated care organisations. The session discusses whether care integration in England will thrive or perish as new health sector reforms are introduced that focus on choice and competition across a diverse market of care providers.
