Brief description: The Integrated Health and Wellness Package in the Community is a comprehensive and integrated one that includes Community Based Services (CBS) and Wellness Services. The package includes health and wellness interventions (ranging from prevention, promotion, cure, rehabilitation, and palliation), aiming to empower clients and primary caregivers to look after their health at home. The Package holistically sees community members with a variety of needs and provides a person-centred service to meet those needs in their homes, an alternate living environment, work, learning, or social settings.

Service components include:
• Community entry and engagement
• Maternal and newborn health
• Child and adolescent health
• Healthy adults and ageing
• Sexual and Reproductive Health
Wellness Services is a comprehensive package of care provided in the living, learning, social and working spaces. It delivers different types of services in different settings (e.g. adherence support in a local community or school hall, screening and testing next to the taxi rank, health education sessions in the grounds of a sports club, or using a mobile unit to reach a hard-to-reach community).
