The theme for this year’s summit is delivering health equity through the lens of neighbourhood health, bringing together senior leaders, clinicians, community partners, and other stakeholders from across the Integrated Care System.
The event will include interactive workshops based on three key themes: Addressing inequalities in access through models of care, embedding wider social determinants of health into holistic and preventative approaches to ill health and a Population health management approach to identify need to co-producing solutions.
Key aims:
- highlight reflections from last year, including progress on priority areas for system change, ongoing health equity challenges, learning, and key progress
- neighbourhood Health Policy: Setting the Scene – through the lens of Core20plus5 communities, enabling collaborative opportunities focused on: ways of working: approaches, models, and behaviours to transform care and improve access
- empowering and supporting communities to be at the centre of their own care
