WHAT IS SOCIAL PRESCRIBING?
WHAT IS SOCIAL PRESCRIBING?
Social prescribing is a means of connecting patients to a range of non-clinical services in the community to improve their health and well-being. It builds on the evidence that addressing social determinants of health such as socioeconomic status, social inclusion, housing, and education is key to improving health outcomes.
