Acknowledged
Good patient and carer involvement essential for ICS to meet local needs
Conclusion
The core purposes of ICSs, and the importance of addressing local needs, will not be met without good patient and carer involvement. ICSs cannot truly deliver for their local area without considering the needs of that area from the patient or carer’s perspective. (Paragraph 81) Integrated Care Systems: autonomy and accountability 27
