The development of Cheshire and Merseyside Health and Care Partnership provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to combine our efforts and collective resources to make real improvements to the lives our people and communities.
Consisting of representatives from across our communities, the NHS, local authorities, voluntary sector, housing, police, education and fire and rescue, and local businesses - our Partnership Board provides a multi-agency approach to assess the health, public health and social care needs of people across Cheshire and Merseyside – and develop a combined strategy to address them.
Benefits
Joining up health and care is nothing new – we have been working towards this for years and will continue to build on this excellent work by supporting innovation and learning from examples of best practice across Cheshire and Merseyside and beyond.
Tackling health inequalities is our shared key aim. As a ‘Marmot Community’, we are truly committed to improving the health and wellbeing of our population and in doing so focussing on reducing inequalities.
