Today (1 February 2022), we launched an initial engagement exercise with a wide range of community partners, local people and communities to:
- Develop One Gloucestershire ICS priorities – supporting the future direction of both the proposed NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board (to be known as ‘NHS Gloucestershire’) and the Integrated Care Partnership (to be known as the ‘One Gloucestershire Health and Wellbeing Partnership’) and;
- Inform our future Working with People and Communities Strategy and discover how people would like to get involved in the work of the ICS going forward.
Working together, we want to learn from the COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges of today, continue to transform health and care services for tomorrow based on local needs and shared priorities and improve the county’s health over the longer term.
We can only do this effectively if local people and communities are involved and at the heart of our approach to developing priorities and plans and we truly understand what matters to them.
To support conversations, we have developed a short guide which sets out our early thinking and also helps people to find out more about NHS Gloucestershire and the One Gloucestershire Health and Wellbeing Partnership as we head to *1 July 2022.
Please visit getinvolved.glos.nhs.uk or onegloucestershire.net, read the guide and share your views. You will also find details of how you can get involved in discussions – both online and in person.
