Personalisation in Health and Social Care

“Health and social care should be integrated more. And so we need to reform social care alongside healthcare, so that we can support and empower people…to be able to exercise greater control over their care”. Rt Hon Andrew Lansley CBE MP - (Secretary of State for Health, 8 June 2010)

Capita’s Personalisation in Health and Social Care Conference demonstrates how health services and local authorities can bring together the strategic and practical aspects of integrating services to deliver the Coalition Government’s agenda on personalisation.

Significant funding constraints over the coming period means that the NHS and local authorities have to invest in integrating health and social care services to combine efforts, avoid duplication and make the most of shared resources.

With expert speakers and practical case studies from the Integrated Care Pilot schemes, key topics to be covered include:

• Joint commissioning for personalised health and social care provision
• Engaging the community in designing and delivering integrated
services
• Enhancing the skills of the social care and NHS workforce to deliver person centred care
• Developing shared Personal Care Plans to improve care for
people with long term conditions
• Integrating health budgets across health and social care providers

Attend this timely event to learn how to make partnerships work to provide a more responsive and personalised service for patients and service users.
