Delivering Heatlh Improvement in County Durham and Darlington: Derwentside supplement
Major changes are underway in the NHS and it is vital that the focus on improving health and tackling inequalities in health is maintained during the transition period.
As the Directors of Public Health of the six current PCTs in County Durham and Darlington, we are determined that the partnership work to improve health and tackle health inequalities, developed and delivered in the last four years, is taken forward in the new organisational arrangements.
This shared overarching annual report is a contribution to the NHS Local Delivery Plan for the County Durham and Darlington NHS , and clearly highlights the work that needs to be done. This will directly inform the commissioning processes of the new NHS bodies as well as reinforcing the ongoing partnership priorities. We have based this report on the national priorities identified in Choosing Health1, and The NHS in England: the operating framework for 2006/72, emphasising the specific needs of the population of County Durham and Darlington.
In addition we will produce supplements to this report, providing data and updates on delivery in relation to priorities from last year for each current PCT area/Local Strategic Partnership by September 2006.
