Progress
The Partnership needs to have clear targets to underpin its purpose and shared goals. These will enable the Board to assess if it is being effective.
What does success look like?
The Partnership's success will be measured by its ability to:
- increase the opportunity for service users to play a role in strategy development,
- reform planning and commissioning arrangements so that they deliver better care, and ultimately
- demonstrate an improvement in the health and well-being of local people
Our goals
Aside from working to narrow the gap in the rates at which people die from the same conditions in different areas of the county, the Partnership supports lots of actions to keep us healthier and happier for longer. Priorities for the Health and Well-Being Partnership include:
- Tackling obesity
- Breaking the cycle of deprivation
- Responding to demographic pressures
- Fighting killer infections
- Strengthening mental health provision
- Reducing delays in transfers of care
- Reducing health impact of drinking and smoking
- Increasing participation in sport
- Reducing all-age all-cause mortality
- Increasing support to carers
- Improving involvement of patients/ users/ carers in strategic decision-making
- Shifting resources into preventative services that keep people well (rather than merely responding to sickness)
Performance against these goals is measured by a wide range of specific indicators and targets. Many of these are reported to the Public Service Board because they impact so heavily upon delivery of the Local Area Agreement.
