Description
The West Midlands Combined Authority is working with NHS England, the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP), and the Department of Health (DH) to trial Individual Placement and Support (IPS) services in primary and community care settings. The aim is to test if this model can deliver a transformational improvement in employment, health, and wellbeing outcomes for people out of work with a self-defined long term health condition or disability.
The trial will deploy IPS employment specialists across primary and community NHS services focused on four areas anticipated to be based around CCG geographies: Sandwell & West Birmingham, Birmingham South Central, Dudley and Wolverhampton. It will run from October 2017 to March 2020, hosted by Wolverhampton CCG on behalf of the West Midlands Combined Authority.
The commissioner intends to hold two market engagement events, one in Wolverhampton on 12th June, and the other in Birmingham on 13th June. Full details are available as follows:
