Children and young people represent a third of our country and their health and wellbeing will determine the future health of our nation. We are here to help you transform services and deliver improved outcomes and a strong start in life for children and young people.
The NHS Long Term Plan saw a large focus on ensuring that there is a strong start in life for children and young people. Commitments will be delivered via the development of the Children and Young People’s Transformation Programme and will work in conjunction with the Maternity Transformation Programme, to deliver health, social care and wellbeing improvements for this key group of our population. In delivering these programmes key challenges will be:
- Transforming maternity services to improve outcomes – reduce stillbirths, neonatal deaths, maternal death and brain injury by 50% by 2025 by continued development and implementation of local visions for transforming local maternity services (LMS) based on the principles of the National Maternity Transformation Programme (Better Births 2016).
- Ensuring that focus is put on children’s health and wellbeing to determine the future health of our nation
- The diverse and complex needs of children and young people are managed and there is a coordinated approach to transforming services to deliver improvements in health, social care and wellbeing (First 1000 days (2019), Healthy Childhood programme (2018), including Child Health Information Systems (CHIS).
- Addressing regional variation and health inequalities (Population Health Management and prevention).
- Redesigning care to ensure it is person-centred and that there is a focus on improving transitions, and care models are in place to provide support from preconception to adulthood.
