| Publication name: | Case Studies of Partnerships between the NHS and Community and Voluntary Sector Organisations to deliver Anticipatory Care |
| Description: | Keep Well is one model of anticipatory care in practice. The Keep Well vision is: “To increase the rate of health improvement in deprived communities by enhancing primary care services to deliver anticipatory care.” It aims to: identify and target those at particular risk of preventable serious ill-health (including those with undetected chronic disease); offer appropriate interventions and services to them; and, provide monitoring and follow-up.
The overall aim of this project commissioned by NHS Health Scotland was to develop a series of four case studies from selected examples of existing practice of community and voluntary sector organisations working in partnership with ‘Keep Well’ anticipatory care initiatives, to generate and disseminate learning points for other partnerships. The research for the four case studies involved two elements: review of documentation, including background reports on the four Keep Well case study programmes; and, in-depth interviews with 27 stakeholders. The Keep Well programmes and projects covered in the case studies agreed to be identified in this report and stakeholders gave permission for the quotes used in the report to illustrate key points raised in interviews. |
