The Mid and South Essex Health and Care Partnership comprises all key NHS, local authority, community and voluntary sector organisations that collectively serve our 1.2m population.
Our Primary Care Strategy describes how we will support primary care, through Primary Care Networks (PCNs) to become more resilient, to take a key role in integrating care at a local level, and to improve the health and wellbeing of our residents.
It is intended as a blueprint that will both guide the strategic and operational development of primary care and emphasise its importance and contribution to the entire health and care system.
This paper describes a review of the Primary Care Strategy agreed in 2018. It addresses the key changes to health and healthcare since that date, as they relate to this sector, and primary care’s enhanced role within mid and south Essex. It is intended as a blueprint that will both guide the strategic and operational development of primary care and emphasise its importance and contribution to the entire health and care system.
