Director of Health and Social Impact Assessment at Savills

The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) is hosting a free event on "How social prescribing is revolutionising the way we look at health and wellbeing". They will explore how social prescribing can support patients to improve their health and wellbeing, with an emphasis on the function that it provides within a healthcare setting. You'll gain an increased understanding of the role that social prescribing has in providing a truly person-centred approach within health by exploring the evidence, case studies and innovations across the country. So what does this mean for planning? Simple, when planning your health hubs, don't just calculate GP space requirements, include space for Allied Health Care Practitioners and Social Prescribing. This way you are increasing capacity but also enhancing and expanding care in the community that would be best placed to tackle current and looming health and social care service challenges. It also increases the long term viability and sustainability of community health care (yes, GP's and Pharmacies do close and consolidate), and you create improved working conditions helping to retain and entice staff. Sign up now, they have limited places. https://lnkd.in/eJ67Sa3G
