The Place Director for Wirral presented his report which outlined the key messages from December 2022 guidance from NHS England on the priorities and operational planning guidance for 2023/24.

There were also Place delivery priorities including primary care, work around community health services and mental health and there was a need to develop a neighbourhood approach and medicines optimisation.
