The community & home is becoming the locus of care

Workforce to support integrated care

Good evidence

• The creation of new roles working across professional boundaries supports integrated delivery.

Some evidence

• No one “right” staffing model. Team working more important than individual roles.

• A focus on the service user/patient helps overcome professional boundaries. • Understanding of different roles and responsibilities is important to successful integration within a team.

Messages from ‘Time to Think Differently’

• • • • • • • •

The staff we will have are the staff we already have – don’t rely on the pipeline Align the workforce to the work – not the other way round Develop teams not just individual professional groups Support and “activate” patients Support the informal workforce Reverse the inverse training and investment law Challenged current terms and conditions National facilitation but local action

This is the start…the journey has many steps..with your crucial involvement
