Provider collaboratives
Oli Hudson, content director at Wilmington Healthcare, takes a look at the new groups of providers that are expected to play a pivotal role in integrating care
The NHS’ commitment to integrated, place-based care was reaffirmed in a recent white paper which positioned a new set of organisations, known as provider collaboratives, at the heart of delivering this change.
According to the
Integrating care: Next steps to building strong and effective integrated care systems across England white paper, these groups of providers will take an ‘active and strong’ leadership role in ‘places.’
Indeed, provider collaboratives will be expected to agree and implement clinical pathways and service reconfiguration for a defined population, and challenge and hold each other to account on finance.
This week marks a significant moment for palliative and end of life care in England.
The Ambitions Framework is distinctive for three key reasons.
First, it articulates six key ambitions that describe what good looks like in palliative and end of life care for people of all ages, including their carers and others who are bereaved.
Second, it was co-produced by a partnership of 27 national organisations, all striving towards the same goal and coming from a range of perspectives, including health and social care bodies across the statutory and voluntary sectors.
Third, following its publication, the partnership behind the Framework has remained strong and grown further, providing a catalyst for collective action at different levels.

Here’s a rundown of the key Bills being proposed by the Government in the Queen’s Speech
Sovereign Borders Bill
The bill changes asylum rules, including making claims inadmissible if the person has arrived in the UK illegally . The government has closed the UK’s resettlement schemes, meaning there are no safe and legal routes into the UK. Asylum seekers are being forced to enter the country illegally, then being punished for it, this is inhumane and unacceptable. We should welcome refugees fleeing war and/or persecution with compassion, not treat them like criminals and understand they don’t have time to check their plans with the Home Secretary.
