Our vision and aims
Best health, best care, best value for our communities
East Lothian Integration Joint Board wants to make sure that health and social care services:
- are joined-up for service-users
- take account of the particular needs of individual service-users and their circumstances in different parts of the county
- respect our service-users' rights and take account of their dignity
- take account of the way that our service-users participate in their communities
- protect and improve our service-users' safety
- improve the quality of our services and ensure that they are planned and delivered locally in a way that is engaged with our communities
- anticipate needs and prevent problems arising
- make the best use of the available facilities, people and other resources.
