HeSSOP is a collaboration across the National Council on Ageing and Older People and two
health boards: the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the Western Health Board.
Information on service use, service evaluation and perceptions of service need of a large
community-dwelling group will be reported separately for each board in the first instance;
this is to assist service planning for 2000. A combined report will allow further analysis of
patterns of use etc., including comparisons across boards to identify common and locationspecific challenges to service delivery. While the project will cover only two of the country’s health boards as constituted at the time of the work, the particular boards involved represent the most urban and one of the most rural of the boards. Thus findings are expected to have value for other health boards. The wider issue of consultation strategies to involve older people will be addressed and will be included in the combined survey report.
