Minutes:
The Cabinet considered a report of the Director of Public Health presenting the draft Southend-on-Sea Joint Adult Prevention Strategy 2016 -2021.
Resolved:
That the draft Southend-on-Sea Joint Adult Prevention Strategy 2016-2021 and associated action plan, be approved.
Reason for Decision
The Southend Joint Adult Prevention Strategy and associated action plan will facilitate a shared preventative approach across all key local organisations, enabling earlier identification and actions to address issues in relation to those people at greater risk of poor health outcomes.
The strategy also shifts the emphasis away from service provision to the empowerment of people to take steps to improve their own health and to help to develop community resilience.
A clear strategy to deliver prevention in localities is a requirement of the Mid and South Essex Sustainability and Transformation Planning process. This process requires local NHS commissioners and providers of health care to work with local authorities and their partners to put in place a joint plan to deliver, sustain and improve health and care services for local people.
