Sláintecare, with the International Foundation for Integrated Care (IFIC Ireland) and the Health Service Executive (HSE) has developed a series of learning webinars to share stories of how initiatives and services supported by the Sláintecare Integration Fund have contributed to delivery of care to help vulnerable people stay well in their communities. These learnings will be of particular relevance for services provided for those most at risk of developing Covid-19. Many of the Sláintecare integration-funded projects adapted to delivering their care in innovative ways as a result of infection-control measures, introduced to avoid social contact.
The 17th Sláintecare Right Care Right Place Right Time webinar “Healthy Age Friendly Homes” went live on Thursday 28th April 2022.
Healthy Age Friendly Homes is a Sláintecare and Age Friendly Ireland joint programme.

The 16th Sláintecare Right Care Right Place Right Time webinar “Leadership and Quality in Healthcare” went live on Thursday 27th January 2022.
This webinar, in special partnership with the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland (RCPI), featured projects from the Diploma in Leadership and Quality in Healthcare and the CHO Collaborative.
The 15th Sláintecare webinar focused on patient impact of the Sláintecare Integration Fund. These projects are testing new ways in which we can bring care closer to home, including putting the patient at the centre of service design and delivery. These projects show how joined-up thinking and working in partnership can help us reach Sláintecare’s goals of shifting care to the community, and improving experiences for patients.
The fourteenth Sláintecare Right Care Right Place Right Time webinar took place on Thursday the 18th of November from 3.30pm to 5pm. The focus of this webinar was “Enhancing capacity and skills for the management of chronic conditions”. We spoke to projects who have been working with healthcare professionals to identify and treat certain chronic conditions through continued education, as well as identifying and developing improved pathways to provide more patient-centred integrated care. Other projects are equipping their patients with skills and information to better manage their conditions so they can stay well at home for longer.

Webinar 14: Enhancing capacity and skills for the management of chronic conditions Agenda
DownloadMany Sláintecare Integration Fund projects have a focus on prevention and on empowering people and communities to be more engaged in their own health and wellbeing. The innovation and best practice that all these projects represent will be of great value to the work underway in every county to implement Healthy Ireland as a key part of the Sláintecare vision.
Engagement with and empowerment of citizens in defining and co-designing the kind of health service they envisage and need for the growing population is a cornerstone of the development of the health service.
