Taking Action

Healthcare Organisations

Healthcare services and those who work in them can do more to reduce health inequalities through action on the social determinants of health through actions on the social determinants of health. There is often a strong commitment and willingness among those who work in healthcare do this – the workforce cares deeply about the health of the population and about equity. 

In England, IHE have worked with a number of Integrated Care Systems, Trusts, primary care organisations, the workforce and with the NHS to demonstrate how action on the social determinants of health can be developed and implemented.
