The Mid and South Essex Integrated Care System (ICS) marks a new way of health and care organisations working together to make a positive difference to the lives of 1.2 million residents living in mid and south Essex.
To support the launch of the Mid and South Essex Integrated Care System, a new campaign is being unveiled called Moments that Matter. It showcases those real-life Moments that Matter through the eyes of local people, where joined-up working has resulted in better outcomes for residents and the service provided.
Across mid and south Essex there are over 45,000 health and care staff doing amazing things every day to support residents to live happier and healthier lives. Many of these things could not be achieved without staff from different teams and organisations working in partnership.

Lots of people work in different parts of our health and care system, in surgeries, in hospitals, in your home, as social workers or as volunteers.
But everyone shares the same goal. Working to improve the lives of local people, helping them feel better and get more out of life.
Across mid and south Essex there are hundreds of examples of how we work in partnership,
creating real and positive change for the 1.2 million people living here.
From looking at people’s needs as a whole to access both their physical and mental health needs, helping people to make new social connections, doing the things they love like gardening and dancing.
Better support for local people to stay as healthy and independent for as long as possible, and helping people to stay in the comfort of their own homes, avoiding unnecessary trips to hospital, and giving staff better solutions to help people when they fall. These are the moments that matter.
The different parts of our health and care system are working closer together in an integrated care system, a new partnership of organisations that join up health and care services.
To bring more personalised care. Tailoring support to meet individual needs. Prevent ill-health. To help people take control and tackle issues early on. And achieve better outcomes.
Tackling avoidable, unfair differences in health and wellbeing between different groups of people. Supporting and empowering residents in mid and south Essex to live happier, healthier and longer lives.
Working together to create opportunities for people to thrive. Improve local health and wellbeing. Bring care closer to where people live. Improve and transform local services.
And ultimately achieving better health and wellbeing for local people.
Mid and South Essex Integrated Care System. Together, we can make the moments that matter.
