Through our knowledge and experience of delivering individual services we have come to understand that multiple lifestyle behaviours are closely linked and often interdependent.
Our evidence-based integrated wellbeing services, underpinned by positive psychology principles, recognise multiple risky behaviours, and support people to achieve multiple change solutions.
We build individual and community capacity, working at neighbourhood level we connect people to the place where they live.
Our interventions, covering smoking, weight, physical activity, alcohol, mental wellbeing and healthy eating help an individual not only improve that particular area of their lives but help address the wider determinants that helped create the need for lifestyle change in the first place.
Our coveted ‘my story’ approach facilitates trust and rapport and helps motivate individuals address multiple issues in a concurrent or sequential manner at a pace that suits them.
This approach aims to tackle the problem of disengagement experienced by individuals when navigating the health and social care system. The current system often involves a lot of back-and-forth referrals between different services, leading to a fragmented and disjointed experience for those in need of care. This can cause frustration, a sense of being overlooked, and a lack of progress, leading to disengagement and a negative perception of the care system.
Our approach negates these issues by creating seamless pathways within the service and the wider health, social and community care systems. By doing so, our members receive care in a connected and continuous manner, with no interruptions or delays caused by being referred from one service to another. This helps build a more integrated and efficient system, where members are able to receive the care they need without facing obstacles along the way. The outcome is a positive experience for the individual and a more effective use of resources within the health and social care system.
