The Health Select Committee is scheduled to consider the executive response to the Urgent Care Rapid Scrutiny Group's final report, alongside updates on Adult Social Care performance and the future of the BSW Long Covid Service. The committee will also receive an overview of the Cluster Integrated Care Board's operating model.

Executive Response to Urgent Care Rapid Scrutiny Group

A key item for discussion is the executive response to the Final Report of the Urgent Care Rapid Scrutiny Group. This will include a report from the Cabinet Member for Public Health and Co-ordination with the NHS, detailing the response to the scrutiny group's findings. Additionally, slides prepared by the Integrated Care Board (ICB) will be presented, offering an analysis of how residents and registered patients in Wiltshire access primary and urgent care services. This discussion is particularly relevant given the council's ongoing commitment to improving healthcare access for its residents.

Adult Social Care Performance Overview

The committee is scheduled to review the Adult Social Care performance for the third quarter of the 2025-26 financial year. The report, presented in slide format, will provide details on the performance of adult social care services during this period.

Future of BSW Long Covid Service

Consideration will be given to a proposal from the Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board (BSW ICB) regarding the future of the long COVID service. The report outlines the context, background, and rationale for this proposal, as well as details of planned engagement with local people. This topic aligns with the council's focus on supporting residents with long-term health conditions.

Cluster Integrated Care Board Operating Model

An overview of the restructure of the Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) is scheduled, focusing on how these changes will impact local services within Wiltshire. This discussion is important for understanding the evolving landscape of health service delivery in the region.

Forward Work Programme

The committee will review and potentially approve its forward work programme, taking into account any decisions made during the meeting. This ensures the committee's future activities remain aligned with its priorities and the outcomes of its discussions.

The meeting will also include standard agenda items such as the approval of minutes from the previous meeting held on 14 January 2026, public participation, and a Cabinet Member update. The committee is chaired by Councillor Jane Davies, with Councillor Sam Blackwell serving as Vice-Chairman.
