The Partners’ aim is that people in Oldham will be independent, resilient and self-caring so fewer people reach crisis point. For those that need it, the Partners will commission or design integrated health and care services that enable people to proactively manage their own care as far as they are able, with the support of their family, community and the right professionals at the right time in a properly joined up system. All commissioning activity will reflect the high-level outcomes of the Integrated Care Organisation (ICO) and translate these into meaningful, relevant and measurable personal or population level outcomes.
