Adults' community health services
NHS Kent and Medway engaged with adults who use community health services.
Adults' community health services
“I am proud and honoured to still be a part of the NHS. I believe my work ... is making a tangible difference to people's lives, has reduced the risk of future preventable diseases for hundreds of clients over the years. I believe this focus on health inequalities and person-centred preventative care is also helping to reduce the burden on acute services and primary care.”
