A recognition the system is failing… • The Francis Report into Mid Staffs • Health inequalities • Social determinants of health (Marmot) • A workforce under stress (Boorman)
Oh and by the way… • Major structural reorganisation
To survive and thrive • Need for service redesign • Deliver at increased scale • With enhanced quality • Need for a paradigm shift • Wellness not illness • Patients take responsibility for their own health • Patients control the wellness process • Transformational change not simple transactional change
