The Bristol Health Partners’ Health Integration Teams (HITs) bring together health and care professionals, managers, patients and members of the public, commissioners, local government, third sector organisations and researchers to address pressing health challenges and improve health outcomes. HITs aim to bridge the gap between research and practice.
Over the last two years, a growing number of HITs have evolved to address key mental health challenges for local populations and to improve care pathways.
Chair: Julian Walker, Director of Research & Development, AWP

HITs.
