• People in control of their own health and care
  This report examines the reasons why there has generally been a lack of progress towards fully involving people in their own health and care, and considers how we can advance the cause of making person-centred care the core of health and care reform. It calls for consistent national leadership of the involvement agenda, and meaningful support in areas such as measurement, training and tools for care and support planning.
  
• Supporting people to manage their health

• Delivering better services for people with long-term conditions

• Just what the doctor ordered: Social prescribing - a guide for local authorities
  The challenge of the ageing population and supporting people with long-term conditions is one of the biggest our society faces. Chronic illnesses consume approximately 70 per cent of the health budget. But as there is no cure for them they require us to look beyond the traditional clinical model the NHS offers. This is where social prescribing comes in. By connecting people with local community services and activities we can improve the health and wellbeing of large numbers of people. Councils - with their responsibilty for public health and local leadership = are ideally placed to grasp this nettle

Year of Care Partnerships

• Thanks for the Petunias - Developing and Commissioning Non-Traditional Providers to Support the Self-management of People with Long Term Conditions.
  Developed as part of the national Year of Care programme exploring how to implement care planning, the guide sets out why it is important to include non-traditional providers (e.g. charities, community organisations and social enterprises) in the mix of services. The guide explores a possible organisational model that can be adapted according to local circumstances, resources and needs, and how it could work on a practical level.
