Evidence building and demonstrating your impact

2. Care Merseyside Evidence Buiding and
Demonstrating Impact

3. We are a ‘hub’ by which various agencies and GP’s can refer people to and we in turn
support and direct them to community services and programmes either delivered by
ourselves or other partners to support their welfare, health and well-being.
We offer a bespoke Care Navigation service tailored to individual’s needs and measure
and report and record an individual’s journey via a Social Prescribing software tool -
Elemental.
Who are we?

4. What impact have we had and in what
areas?
People – referrals from GP and Self-
referrals and other agencies.
Partnerships – allows for expansion of
provision.
Progression – how has this helped
beneficiaries?

5. Our project operates by mapping out and identifying
existing available community activities and services
(assets) available in Knowsley, developing an active
relationship with these service providers via our digital
engagement platform ( Elemental ) and then populating
these activities with referrals received from our
extensive network of referral agencies. This allows us to
monitor numbers on activities and the progress made as
a result.

9. Our collaborative approach as having a two-
pronged effect.
1. We have a range and variety of services to
direct referred clients to.
2. We are supporting the development of
local groups within the community and
voluntary sector.
Here is a short video demonstrating our work
in action.

10. We have managed to capture
two sets of scores for 80
patients since last year who
took a GAD7 Score on
beginning and intervention and
another score on completing.
This translates to a 42%
reduction overall.

11. Since August 2019 we asked
people who have been referred
on to interventions who have
low self-esteem we chose low
carb, drama and creative
writing class participants.
Collectively they have seen an
increase of 275%.

For a recent National Lottery application
we asked some of our participants to
give us feedback on what social
prescribing meant to them – here is
what they said.
