You are invited to join this informative event with leading experts, practitioners and experienced representatives dedicated to unveiling the transformative effects of social prescribing.
You will explore how social prescribing can support patients to improve their health and wellbeing, with an emphasis on the function that it provides within a healthcare setting. During this event, you will gain an increased understanding of the role that social prescribing has in providing a truly person-centred approach within health by exploring the evidence, case studies and innovations across the country.
By attending, you will:
- Understand the concept, and be able to define social prescribing whilst being able to distinguish it from other health interventions
- Recognise the importance of social prescribing to be included across the life course as a way of adopting a person-centred approach to people’s health and care pathways
- Define the pillars of social prescribing, and be able to identify what constitutes a social prescription
We would like to thank our anonymous donor for their generous support enabling this platform for patient focused charities and free access to the Medicine and Me series.
