Speakers

Shifting health from hospitals and into communities, preventative healthcare, and local regeneration are all central objectives of the government. Similar efforts have been made before, but what makes this time different? And what role can and should trusts play in this?

The dual need to alleviate demand upon emergency departments and reinvigorate local areas has united policy makers and NHS leaders to embark on the ambitious goal of embedding health on the high street. This webinar looks at the new approach, with examples of best practice. 

This is the fifth part of a series being led by Michael Wood, head of Health Economic Partnerships. Michael advises NHS leaders nationally and locally on policy, strategy, partnerships and funding relating to the local economy, including in areas such as skills and workforce, estates, innovation, population health and finance.
