We remind readers of the evidence that community empowerment is a cost-effective way to improve health, and also that the conditions now exist to develop this approach in the UK, by facilitating collaboration between clusters of general practices and multiple other organisations. We argue that it is the role of Health and Wellbeing Boards to make sure that this huge potential is realised.
我们提醒读者注意这样的证据,即社区赋权是改善健康状况的一种具有成本效益的方式,而且目前英国已具备通过促进全科医疗群组与其他多个组织之间的合作来发展这种方法的条件。我们认为,确保实现这一巨大潜力是健康与福祉委员会的职责。
