We are working to ensure that children on the Isle of Wight are supported to get the best start in life that will lead to good health and wellbeing. This will provide the foundation to ensure they are able to achieve the best opportunities and keep as healthy and well as possible throughout their lives.
We want to ensure that families, individuals and communities are thriving and resilient with access to good jobs, affordable housing, leisure activities, lifelong training, education and learning, health and care services are are able to enjoy the place in which they live.
We want to ensure that people on the Isle of Wight are able to live independently in their own homes with appropriate care support. We want to make sure older residents are supported to play an active role in their communities and supported to maintain and develop their social and community networks.
We have listened to people, patients, service users, carers and staff in the NHS and social care.
Major engagement exercises have been carried out in developing the Mental Health Blue Print and as part of the My Life A Full Life programme and Health and Care Conversations have been held to understand the current issues that really matter to local people.
Healthwatch Isle of Wight has also been leading the way with important reports on health and care services across the Island.
Our plan will not repeat those conversations because people have told us loud and clear that they want to see change delivered.
