Members of the Board were asked to consider the following questions:
(a) whether they were content with the vision and governance of the JSNA? (b) were there any amendments or changes in emphasis that they would like to see?
Whilst the Board declared themselves content with the vision and governance of the JSNA, they were keen to see evidence (where possible) of loneliness and isolation amongst the young and the elderly placed higher on the agenda and built into the thinking which drives all areas of work. This kind of emphasis would ensure that the Strategy becomes a fluid and living document.

He added that the Strategy was based on an analysis of the facts. Further, that both Health and Social Care were endeavouring to respond to the challenges of demographic pressures and limited financial resource by taking measures which improved outcomes for older people and thus limit the demand for health and social care.
Members of the Board discussed a number of points raised in the report HWB11. Issues debated centred around: · the relatively high number of people going into care homes in Oxfordshire; and · the merits of Extra Care Housing and the need to encourage more individual schemes/planning applications.
