Health and care organisations in Warwickshire work closely together to provide you with better, joined-up care and more support in your community.
The Lead Provider Programme means SWFT lead a partnership across Warwickshire to plan, coordinate and improve services so people can stay healthier and get the right care closer to their home.
What does it do?
It looks for ways where instead of organisations working separately it can bring them together around the needs of local people. This may be opening new facilities, reshaping current care models or making sure systems are more joined up to improve a patient’s journey.
Who are the partners?
- GP’s
- Hospitals
- Community services
- Councils
- Voluntary organisations
Who does it do this for?
Patients and the wider community in Warwickshire - with the aim of providing more efficient, local services.
It also means patients go to the right place for their care.
Why?
Because community-based care is easier for patients. They don’t have to travel as far they don’t have to park at a hospital and they don’t have to wait as long. They can have control over their own care and get quicker access to the support they need.
Our four goals:
- Working better together - Health and care organisations across Warwickshire will plan services together rather than separately.
- Improving the health of local communities - Using data and local insight to focus on prevention and reducing health inequalities.
- Listening to patients and staff - Making sure services are shaped by people who use them and people who deliver them.
- Building a system that can manage services across Warwickshire - Putting the right contracts, governance and partnerships in place.
