We are looking at ways to work better with other local organisations such as the council, hospitals, community services and the voluntary sector. To help us do this, Integrated Neighbourhood Teams are being developed so that everyone working on the health and wellbeing of our residents is doing so in a joined up way that makes a real difference.
In the Borough of Bromley, there are four Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs), each comprising of two Primary Care Networks:
North East INT: Bromley Connect PCN and MDC PCN
South East INT: Orpington PCN and The Crays Collaborative PCN
South West INT: Five Elms PCN and Hayes Wick PCN
North West INT: Beckenham PCN and Penge PCN
The vision:
The vision is to deliver integrated services that provide holistic, person-centred care, with a focus on prevention and care closer to home supported by local communities. This approach will make it easier for residents to access and navigate services and lead to improved health and wellbeing.
