South Yorkshire Innovation Showcase Event – Integrated Workforce Development

Supported by the South Yorkshire Integrated Care Partnership, the SY Innovation Showcase event took place on the 18th of November at the Olympic Legacy Park in Sheffield. It was great to have been chosen, in partnership with Sheffield City Council to showcase the Integrated Workforce Development that has been underway.

“By embracing the principles of Integrated working and developing partnerships built on mutual respect and shared purpose, there is a sustainable workforce strategy that addresses the challenges of alignment in policy, procedures and workforce demands.

Through initiatives such as workforce Engagement Board and Social Care Placement Expansion Project, the approach to workforce development is inclusive and future focused. The engagement model recognises key leader, facilitates collaboration across health, care and voluntary services, and values contributions from all, including paid and unpaid caregivers. Dedicated project groups focus on essential aspects, from empowering the social care workforce to strengthening recruitment and retention, ensuring our workforce reflects and serves our diverse community“SYIH 2024
