We want to support people to live happy and independent lives.
To do this we have designed a model of care which sets out our vision of how health, care and well-being will look for the people and communities of Walsall.
Prevention, early intervention, proactive self-care and wellbeing support services, are organised at individual and community levels. There is a strong emphasis on fairness and equitable access to services and opportunities.
Building integrated teams at neighbourhood and locality levels for adults, children, young people and families. Bringing together teams and professionals from multiple providers to work together, share resources and information, and form multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) dedicated to improving the outcomes of a local community and tackling health inequalities.
Joined up health, mental health, social care and other specialist services at the Borough level, to manage chronic and complex needs, provide crisis support and hospital avoidance as well as intermediate care.
Access to high quality acute hospital services for patients when they need specialist intervention, available through both the Black Country Provider Collaborative and Mental Health Lead Provider.
Health, care and wellbeing access, navigation and coordination, including triage and service directories, to ensure citizens can get to the right part of the system, to the right service and to the right professional in an efficient and timely manner.
