Health care is increasingly under pressure. Budget crises are
making collaboration and smart thinking essential, while increasing
numbers of people with multiple long-term conditions make
specialist models of health care increasingly inefficient -
patients too often go from one specialist to another, duplicating
effort and paying too little attention to the bigger picture of
their health. Collaborating for Health outlines a solution:
community-oriented integrated care and health promotion. Designed
to prevent the problems of fragmented care, this approach focuses
on building teams, networks and communities for health and care at
local level, where it is easier to see the range of factors that
affect people's health. With the emphasis on partnership-working
between primary care, public health and others, it allows clusters
of general practices to share the work of integrating efforts for
care and health improvement, and for non-medical organisations to
lead parallel initiatives for health and care. Introducing both
horizontal and vertical integration, Thomas presents ways to
develop community-oriented integrated care in a sustainable way,
and how to practise the skills in small ways before you have to
perform on a big stage. This guide is for anyone interested in how
multidisciplinary primary care teams can orchestrate most aspects
of health and care at local level, with timely specialist input.
