Local Integration — Referral Pathways & Stakeholder Engagement
JOINED-UP PATHWAYS: Link NHS, local authority and third-sector services into seamless pathways; reduce duplication by integrating referral, assessment and follow-up across diabetes, obesity, hypertension and mental health; ensure pathways are coherent for professionals and patients.
INTEGRATION WITH LIFESTYLE SERVICES: NHS services complement LA/third-sector programmes (weight management, behavioural support); growing community pharmacy role in screening/prevention/management; behavioural support embedded in weight management and hypertension services. CO-DESIGN: Pathways co-designed with residents, lived experience groups and community organisations for cultural relevance; clear communication and education for professionals and patients.
NDPP/T2DR PROVIDER EXPECTATIONS: Proactively encourage referrals via regular comms; offer awareness webinars/Q&A and attend Place GP education sessions; engage low/no-engagement practices for an equitable offer; provide patient discussion/referral resources; work with the HNY Population Health Group to determine F2F locations and bespoke session needs; clarify content variations by referral pathway; support and encourage referrals from the most deprived areas and BAME communities. REFERRALS: GP-initiated via a standardised digital form with eligibility embedded; GDM self-referral portal also available.
