Can housing care and support provide solutions to health challenges?

This article highlights the links between housing and health and suggests that the health sector has much to benefit from joined-up working with the housing and support sector. There are advantages to both sectors of working in this way, particularly in the area of commissioning services. By working creatively together at key points along the care pathway, local partners can support each other in the delivery of services. Many housing associations are uniquely placed to deliver services that offer key solutions to person-centred working and can help to build healthier communities.
