Integrated health and social care Resources

The current Covid-19 pandemic has thrown countries and societies into a crisis management situation, resulting in lockdowns and unprecedented high demand on health and public services. Here, Teresa Burdett, senior lecturer in integrated health care, unit lead for foundations of integrated care and person-centred services and unit lead for foundations of general practice nursing and Lee-Ann Fenge, professor of social care, both at Bournemouth University, look at integrated health and social care provision to improve existing care delivery methods and promote person-centred care.
