Integrated Service Delivery

The Integrated Service Delivery (ISD) Board is managing the development of prevention and early intervention services and how integrated service delivery, at this level, should be mainstreamed across all children's services.

Having completed extensive background research, on integrated service delivery the ISD Board has made a significant commitment to developing locality working particularly with those organisations delivering universal and early preventative work.

The work to achieve better integration across prevention and early intervention services should be done in conjunction with specialist and targeted services that focus their work on individual children in need as well as targeted groups or whole communities. Integration across all levels will make a real difference and improve outcomes for children; it will be further enhanced if integration of specialist and targeted services are developed in ways to compliment the more locally based services.

Therefore, the programme is aiming to develop a flexible framework, which takes account of these factors the Continuum of Need will provide a basis to support a workable structure for integrated service delivery. It is also essential to work with other initiatives for the development of children's services.
