| Annotation | The National Health Service (NHS) and social care organisations increasingly need to work together in partnership to get better value from available resources that also improves services and outcomes for users. This report examines how local councils and NHS bodies jointly fund partnerships and the impact this has on adult service users. It reviews the scale and range of joint financing arrangements in England; and looks at local implementation. It comments on the role of national and local bodies in overcoming identified barriers and explores how joint financing and integration have made a difference to service users. Examples of notable practice and case studies are cited throughout. Also included are checklists and a glossary. (RH). |
