Health & Wellbeing Boards

Health & Wellbing Boards - Board Assurance Prompt and Maturity Matrix

This briefing is targeted at those developing Health and Wellbeing Boards (HWBBs), or who need to understand and work with HWBBs in the future. It is intended to support informed debate as the precise form and role of HWBBs emerge, and to encourage local health and social care economies to lay the foundations for better partnership working.

HWBBs will have implications for all concerned with local health and social care services, and we would encourage GPs, and other clinicians, Directors of Public Health, Elected Members, Local Authority officers, LINKs, PCT colleagues, providers, third sector organisations, and public, patient and carers’ advocates to all take an active concern in how their HWBB is being developed.
