We make sure that people across the South East have access to high quality health and care services working in partnership with local integrated care boards (ICB), NHS trusts, and ambulance trusts.

A significant part of our work is to assure the work of our ICBs, making sure they are able to meet the health needs of their population, are well led and are managing budgets responsibly. We do this by providing professional leadership on commissioning, digital transformation, assurance and delivery, finance, nursing, medical and clinical leadership.

We are responsible for commissioning:

• screening and immunisations programmes
• specialised services
• health services for those in the armed forces, and,
• health services for children, young people and adults in secure and detained services across the South East.
