Integrated health and care
The Health and Care Jersey Minister and Assistant Ministers are considering how to reorganise the current structure of Jersey’s health and care services.
This will help services work together to improve the health and wellbeing of Islanders by:
-
supporting people to stay well, which reduces the need for services
-
providing care and support to those who need it
Services that work better together are referred to as integrated services.
Integrated services are more efficient and effective, and help ensure that Islanders’ and Government’s money is well spent. This is important in Jersey as our population ages and the costs of care and treatment increases.
Latest update
HCJ Advisory Board
On 30 September 2025, the States Assembly unanimously agreed to continue the Health and Care Jersey (HCJ) Advisory Board. This decision recognises the value that the Board is making in improving the planning and delivery of HCJ's services.
Assembly approval means the Advisory Board, which includes senior executives from HCJ who work alongside 5 non-executive directors, will continue to work together to improve the health and wellbeing of Islanders.
The Advisory Board will continue to meet regularly in public.

Establishment of a new Partnership Board
In addition to agreeing the continuation of the Advisory Board, the States Assembly also agreed to the establishment of a new Partnership Board, which will bring together health and care providers from across the Island’s health and care system.
Members, including representatives from HCJ, will work together to consider how best to address the many complex challenges facing our health and care system, and to oversee delivery of agreed solutions.
They will consider how best to provide all Islanders fair, affordable access to the services they need. The Board will also work to resolve everyday problems that affect the delivery of safe, effective and joined-up services.
Together, the Advisory Board and new Partnership Board will provide an effective system of governance across the Island’s whole health and care system.
Recruitment to the Partnership Board will start over the coming weeks.
Phase 2
In April 2025, the Minister consulted key stakeholders on the draft terms of reference for a proposed Partnership Board.
A Partnership Board is a Board of health and care service organisations, including government and non-government members, whose purpose is to come together to plan how to improve the health and wellbeing of people who live in Jersey.
