Consultation: Joint Commissioning Strategy for Older People
living in North Somerset
The key aim of this strategy is to achieve the transformation of
services which offer real choices and better outcomes for older
people. In particular, NHS North Somerset and North Somerset Council
are keen to develop a range of joint services which actively work to
promote independence and reduce our use of institutional care
options, be they hospital-based or in care home settings.
We would like to hear your views on what we are planning to do.
