Wales already has a higher proportion of people aged over 85 than the other countries of the United Kingdom, and is likely to rise further in the next decade. This framework for integrated health and social care summarises the relevant policy and key principles; and provides clear definitions. It sets out the Welsh Government’s expectations for how all the different partners need to develop and deliver integrated health and social care services, not as something extra but as the normal way of working. It identifies what the evidence indicates as the core requirements on which to base local planning and delivery; and states the outcome-based indicators that will help establish the present baseline position and measure progress. In all, care delivery must be aimed at achieving improved user and patient care through better co-ordination of services; and the the recipient will have a greater say and more control over the care received. Responses to this consultation are required by 31 October 2013. (Edited publisher abstract)
