Joined-up Care: Sam's Story (3:38)
Watch Sam’s health and care journey below which highlights the benefits of joined up care for both the patient and the healthcare organisations. Sam’s story also highlights the importance of Personalised Care and Support Planning.
How to achieve the vision
This can be achieved through:
• Care planning – an iterative process based on relationships and connections between those relying on health/social care services and those who support them – users, carers, professionals, community agencies.
• Care plans – co-created summaries of information that describe how, where and why particular strategies will be most useful to people.
• Shared care plans – accessible to a range of stakeholders with a legitimate and agreed interest in a person’s care, wherever and whenever that will be useful.
