Exploring what works well and less well in a community-based drop-in delivery model providing integrated health and wellbeing services for people experiencing homelessness

This event aims to bring together stakeholders involved in the delivery of care and support for people experiencing homelessness and those interested in integrated care. Commissioners, providers, researchers, and community voices will come together to discuss learnings from an evaluation of the service delivery model at the Joseph Cowen Health Centre and explore recommendations for the wider system when it comes to co-located and integrated support for people experiencing homelessness.

Colleagues from Tyne Housing and Emma Adams (Newcastle University/Fuse) will set the scene by providing an overview of the current context for the service and an overview of the research findings.

This will be followed with a workshop activity to develop a set of recommendations for provision of regional co-located and integrated support for people experiencing homelessness and build collaborative relationships between stakeholders and researchers.

Who is this event for?

This event is for anyone working homelessness or inclusion health and interested in co-located and integrated care, including: people who have experienced homelessness; carers; community representatives; providers from VCSE, local authority, and NHS services; commissioners; and academics and researchers.

What will I gain from this?

You will have the opportunity to contribute your perspectives to building local recommendations around integrated and co-located health and social care services for people experiencing homelessness. In addition to facilitating research to support local practice and need.
