Vision

We want to change the balance between hospital and community, with more care closer to your home and we want to reduce early death ensuring fair access to health care for everyone. See our ‘Changing the balance’: A 2020 Vision of Health and Social Care in Sheffield leaflet here for more information. 

Changing how we work

The NHS and social care need to change how we work if we are to continue to meet people’s needs in Sheffield. 

The NHS organisations in Sheffield and Sheffield City Council are working together to talk to the public of Sheffield about why we think we need to change and what those changes should look like. 

Throughout 2015 the CCG and partners talked to people across the city about some of the challenges that the health and social care system faces and how we respond to these challenges.

This should lead to a view of health and social care in the year 2020 that is shared by organisational partners, the public and clinicians, enabling health and social care organisations to then work together, with the public of Sheffield, to implement the changes agreed.

A launch event for '2020 Vision' was held in May - find out more about the launch event here.
