Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership
Our vision is to enable people in the Falkirk Partnership area to live full and positive lives within supportive communities.
These web pages set out the Falkirk Partnerships Strategic Plan along with a number of supporting publications and processes.
Integration Scheme
Integration means that over the next few years, GPs, hospitals, health workers, social care staff and others will increasingly work side-by-side to share information and take a more co-ordinated approach to the way services are delivered.
The Integration Scheme is a legally binding agreement between Falkirk Council and NHS Forth Valley who are known as ‘the parties’ in the Integration Scheme. The scheme describes what the parties will do to enable the Falkirk Integration Joint Board (IJB) to meet its responsibilities (or ‘delegated functions’). It does not describe what the IJB will do in detail. The IJB became responsible for adult and older peoples services from April 2016. The scheme contains high level statements of commitment to ensure flexibility and accommodate future changes.
