Preliminary results demonstrate that this is effective and diverts pressure away from healthcare professionals in primary care, where demand is currently very high. People living through ill health can be retained by and even return to the labour market using this model of care, with only the more complex cases requiring specialist input from healthcare professionals.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8216;Providing work &amp; health support is key to addressing the social determinants of health and this is now more important than ever in the current economic climate.
