B&NES ICA – Priority work areas and themes

Four key priorities that run across all of our themes

·  Improve population health and reduce health inequalities

·  Design and implement integrated neighbourhood teams

·  Redesign community services

The role of the B&NES Health and Wellbeing Board is to set the vision to improve health and reduce health inequalities within the B&NES population.

• The Health and Wellbeing Strategy (H&WBS) is based on meeting needs identified in the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA), referred to locally as the Strategic Evidence Base.

• The H&WBS sets out the Board’s strategic direction for B&NES population level outcomes and four broad high-level priorities for system partners to operationalise.

• The H&WBS has an implementation plan which gives further detail on the actions that organisations will take place to address those priorities.

• There are three actions in this plan that are the responsibility of the ICA to lead on. They have been identified as actions that align particularly well with the role of the Board’s terms of reference, and that directly align with the ICA priorities and actions  ...  view the full minutes text for item 10
