Health and Social Care Integration

Health and Social Care Integration refers to the collaborative approach that combines health services (like hospitals and doctors) with social care services (such as support for daily living and mental health). The goal is to provide seamless and coordinated support for individuals, ensuring they receive the right care at the right time, particularly for those with complex needs. By working together, health and social care professionals can improve outcomes, enhance patient experiences, and use resources more efficiently, ultimately leading to better overall well-being for individuals in the community.
