Health and social care partnerships provide a unique opportunity to address complex health and social needs. With social determinants of health, such as employment and housing, accounting for 30-55 percent of health outcomes (), there’s been a call in this country to engage with sectors beyond health to improve equitable access to care.
Join us on May 29 as our panel of health and social care experts—from leaders to providers to people with lived experiences—shares the impact of these partnerships and how their experiences of working together makes a difference.
All registrants will have access to a recording and a list of resources on health and social care partnerships after the event, which will be posted on the ÈÕ±¾ÎÞÂë website.
