NHS Dorset is responsible for planning to meet the health care needs of people and communities in Dorset by working closely together across the NHS, local authorities, and many others in what is called the Dorset integrated care system. NHS Dorset will listen to people and communities across Dorset, see things from their perspective, and co-design the services that people really need going forward, so that we can support people to live healthy and happy lives from cradle to old age.
