CORE20plus5 is the NHSE approach to identifying and informing interventions at both national and local levels to narrow the gap and tackle health inequalities.
The proposed approaches outlined within CORE20plus5 are embedded across two very distinct elements:
CORE20 – as means of identifying the social determinants of health through national population data across the top 20% most deprived neighbourhoods within the Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMDs).
Plus5- identification of five key thematic clinical priorities for local and regional systems to develop tailored approaches to capture those groups and communities not included within the core20. The five clinical priority areas are hypertension, early cancer diagnosis, chronic respiratory disease, maternity and severe mental illness
The e-learning modules are aimed at anyone with a responsibility or interest in reducing health inequalities – especially those working to deliver services in the ‘5’ clinical priority areas.
Each module takes around 30 minutes to complete.
The modules are available for free on the HEE E-learning for health platform: https://www.e-lfh.org.uk/programmes/health-inequalities/
