1920 Serious Mental Illness Health checks Outreach in Milton Keynes for BLMK ICB

Provision of Mental Illness Health checks Outreach in Milton Keynes for NHS Bedfordshire, Luton & Milton Keynes Integrated Care Board The SMI Outreach Project aims to address the health inequality faced by people living with severe mental illness (SMI) in Bedfordshire. The life expectancy for individuals with SMI is 15-20 years shorter than the general population, and this disparity is partly due to physical health needs being neglected. The project is intended to improve the physical health of people with SMI and increase their uptake of physical health checks and health screening through a tailored outreach service. This service is aimed at those who have not routinely engaged with their GP practice. Work to address this inequality is part of Core20Plus5, NHS England's flagship approach for tackling health inequalities.
