A new approach to personalised care in Sheffield (SAPA 5)

This case study looks at the work of the Personalised Care Team (PCT) in the SAPA 5 neighbourhood of Sheffield. It explores SAPA 5’s approach to developing a personalised healthcare system that brings together the combined experience of the health and voluntary sector. We look at what working in this way has achieved, some of the challenges encountered along the way, and what is required to sustain and build the work of the PCT.

This case study forms a part of wider work being carried out with colleagues across Sheffield with our Connecting Health Communities programme. It aims to demonstrate what can be achieved when strong relationships are formed in local partnerships between health and voluntary sector workers to address local needs.
