HEALTH SCRUTINY

LOCAL HEALTHWATCH, HEALTH AND WELLBEING BOARDS AND HEALTH SCRUTINY
Roles, relationships and adding value   ...   14 pages


This Guide aims to help local leaders and others to understand the independent, but complementary, roles and responsibilities of Council health scrutiny, local Healthwatch and Health and Wellbeing Boards.  The Guide does not aim to cover every eventuality:  it is a 'snapshot' that can be a basis for discussions about how existing and new bodies will work together, and how they can build on local agreements and legislative requirements.
