Sustainable Development in the NHS

2-Aug-2003

This study:

• Quantifies the regional health and social care economy (public, voluntary and private sectors);
• Identifies how the NHS can contribute to the East of England Regional Economic Strategy;
• Identifies strengths, opportunities and barriers to maximise the health and social care economy's contribution to reducing health inequalities, creating employment and improving community well-being.

A Stakeholder event will be held in early September followed by the sub-regional events in November. The study is due for completion by December 2003.
