‘Connect Sudbury’

Early Adopter Site: West Suffolk

Connect Sudbury - Overview

• Long standing knowledge that integrated care will provide a better health and care system for people – but in West and East Suffolk partners were struggling to make this a reality at scale

• The Health and Care Review – started in December 2013 - aimed to create a shared view of a future integrated system

• Aim is to operationalise the Health and Care Integration Strategy in West Suffolk, beginning in Sudbury

• It will give a test of concept and the ability to develop the model further• It is a major partnership of the local public, community health teams, GPs,

the Sudbury social care teams- ACS & CYP, West Suffolk Hospital, NSFT, the Police, CCG, the local voluntary and community sector, Babergh District Council and others

• 2 main building blocks for integrated working in Suffolk: Neighbourhood Networks & Integrated Neighbourhood Teams

• Community Pharmacies will be key partners in helping support individuals in the community
