LJPC has grown into a community of practice who want to understand community-oriented #integratedcare. To continue this journey LJPC is transforming into COIN (CommunitiesOfOrientatedNetwork) alongside @UCLAN. Updates will be posted here incl details of new social media handles.

Why are public health and primary care not working optimally together? Is it because of funding streams & politics? Is it lack of shared vision & approach Could primary care homes @NAPC_NHS be a way to provide a shared 'playground' for primary care & public health #integratedcare

“A healthy person is alive in the moment...a team player...humble, thoughtful, honest and kind!” By Paul Thomas. #IntegratedCare @LJPCjournal @rcgp @DoctorMayur

‘If you want lots of people to work together you have to have a shared playground - a village, a shared interest, a GP waiting room. People are bored in the waiting room- just open it up!’ #integratedcare

[Suzanne Wood @WoodSuz11]

Lots of food for thought @ launch of @Thomas7Paul book on collaborating for #IntegratedCare. @margaret_iff the annual cycles of learning and change reminded me of Shine.

What are the skills every citizen and provider needs to move from a place of entrapment to a place of empowerment? Collaborative learning networks a potential way #integratedcare

#integratedcare @Thomas7Paul reflects on ideas useful for Primary Care Homes @NAPC_NHS

[Dr Chris Manning @Chrissox]

#IntegratedCare “if you want people to collaborate, you have to have a wide enough vision to enable that to happen”. Prof Paul Thomas

[Catherine Wilton @CatherineWilton]

Dr Paul Thomas on place-based working, ‘We have all the bits we need but they are in different parts of the system....If you want to see other perspectives you have to move.’ #integratedcare

[London Journal of Primary Care @LJPCjournal]

If you want to see other perspectives you have to get up from your seat/point of view and look around, walk through the streets. Then if you want to develop trust & relationships you need to also interact #integratedcare

[London Journal of Primary Care @LJPCjournal]

Now is the time for organic, collaborative, whole system thinking #integratedcare

[London Journal of Primary Care @LJPCjournal]

For complex collaborations to happen shared geographical location and community so important #integratedcare
