Turning Point comments on Public Health Outcomes Framework  

Commenting on the new Public Health Outcomes Framework, released today, Turning Point’s Chief Executive, Lord Victor Adebowale said;


“The new Public Health Outcomes Framework provides an opportunity to increase integration between different public health strands such as mental health, substance misuse and long term conditions.  Seize this opportunity and we could see improvements to health and wellbeing at a local level.  Fail to do so, and those with the most complex needs may suffer.”
