Abstract
Within the space of three years, the Department of Health oscillated between a commitment to partnership working and the imposition of structural change in the pursuit of integrated care. The idea of care trusts which integrate health and social care functions acquired political currency, despite the absence of any evidence base to inform the model. This article urges caution and suggests that the partnership model deserves a chance to deliver results.
