Delivering our NHS vision and priorities

Our vision is to have a high-quality, community-centred health and care system by 2035. This means focusing on prevention, delivering care in people’s homes or as close to home as possible and making the best use of technology to reduce reliance on hospitals.

If we want to achieve our vision, we must continue to change the way we currently deliver health and care services in Lancashire and South Cumbria.

Our Five-Year Strategic Commissioning Plan explains how we’ll support and shape local health services over the next five years. It follows NHS England’s Fit for the Future: 10 Year Health Plan for England, which is changing how care is delivered. This includes bringing services closer to people’s homes, using digital tools more, and focusing on preventing ill health and supporting people earlier.
