The Lord Darzi report highlights the need to shift NHS care closer to home by embedding sustainable financial frameworks. General practice, mental health, and community services must expand to meet the needs of an ageing population with long-term conditions, easing pressure on hospitals and enhancing patient-centred care.

The HSJ Care Closer to Home Forum will bring together professionals from across primary, secondary, community, and social care to explore solutions such as urgent care, preventive measures, and integrated services. This event offers a platform to share strategies that strengthen care outside of hospitals.

Attending the Forum gives you the chance to engage with key stakeholders, influence new care models, and contribute to strategies that improve patient outcomes.

Please note, the Forum will run alongside the HSJ Virtual Care Forum and HSJ Health and Care Intelligence Forum.
