putting the jigsaw together without the picture on the box
Funding for local public health has been getting more complicated, making it harder for directors of public health to plan, and for transparency for anyone looking on, seeking to understand what is happening. David Buck looks at the different pieces of the jigsaw.

I would like to see a Conference based on INNOVATION, there are good Innovators out there, you need to 'tap' into their 'thoughts and ideas' and implement those that are already in place.
I attended a Kings Conference on 'integration' and was well impressed with an Agency that supported the 'elderly in their homes' funded by PHE, it saved thousands. It provided help with essential repairs, GP appointments, and much more, why is this NOT advertised across the country via a PHE campaign including CCGs and LA.
The above could also help 'vulnerable' adult live in their homes, eradicate isolation, help them with a purpose in life.
Do we really need Social Workers working in isolation? we need Agencies as described above multi tasking.
The Social Worker idea is outdated, too expensive, and unworkable, we need a completely different approach to 'integration.
