Community healthcare services provide vital out-of-hospital support for thousands of patients each day. During the pandemic, the importance of such care has increased – helping reduce pressure on hospitals and keep patients with long term conditions safely at home.

Despite these hugely important roles, the work of community healthcare is sometimes overshadowed by that of acute healthcare. This despite a longstanding commitment to move care closer to home.

So how can the health and care system make the most of community healthcare services? What does the future of such provision look like? How can efficient delivery of services be supported? What role might technology play here? Might the impending statutory basis of integrated care systems help?

This HSJ webinar, run in association with Malinko, will bring together a small panel of experts to discuss these important issues.
