Local Area Agreements: Strategic Facilitators for Integrated Care?
Abstract
Local area agreements (LAAs) are important vehicles for carrying forward an integrated local agenda, and there is no shortage of documentation explaining to local authorities why this is so, what they need to do, when it needs to happen and who needs to be involved. This article looks at research on the experiences of those delivering LAAs in local authorities which outlined practical steps that need to be taken to support front‐line teams grappling with the challenges that arise in taking forward integrated care delivery.
