East Midlands Social Prescribing Scoping Protocol

1. Introduction

The East Midlands Academic Health Science Network (EMAHSN) has commissioned the University of Leicester (UoL) to develop a protocol (or tool) to help organisations across the East Midlands to scope where they are in implementing social prescribing in their area.

This survey will ask questions about what models of social prescribing you and your colleagues/team are implementing in the East Midlands and how you are implementing them. This data will be used to identify the variety and breadth of social prescribing models and allow benchmarking of progress and sharing of best practice across the region.

All information gathered will be used for the purposes of the study and any personal information provided will be kept confidential. Data will be accessed by the EMAHSN and the UoL research team. Taking part is voluntary, you can withdraw at anytime.

For further information please contact Dr Ceri Jones on crj10@leicester.ac.uk
