Improving offender health through better partnership

Developing effective strategies to improve offender health is a challenge for NHS commissioning organisations and Prison Services. Getting to know each others priorities, challenges, language and to build trust are some of the areas not often seen on Partnership Board agendas which lead to many “elephants” joining the party!!

We have been working with a local Partnership Board to help develop a common vision for the future and to begin to identify what building blocks need to be in place to begin to move towards that vision. We plan to liberate any elephants we find along the way!!
