As a leading health organisation aimed at improving patient care and preventing disease worldwide, the RCP is committed to supporting the global response to COVID-19.
Climate change is the biggest global threat to health and the need to act has never been clearer. From respiratory diseases to access to clean water, global warming is negatively affecting the health of people around the world.
Peer support can help staff cope with the stress that comes from their work. New guidance from the RCP and the Royal College of Psychiatrists (RCPsych) sets out the values, principles and practice of peer support, with an infographic that can be printed out and displayed locally.
The RCP has launched a fundraising appeal to help our members and the health service manage the response and longer-term consequences of the COVID19 pandemic.
Integrated care is seamless, coordinated and locally designed care that puts patients at the centre of service organisation, considers their needs in a holistic way, and develops high quality services that meet these needs in settings that are accessible and convenient for patients.
