Salus works across the area covered by Frimley Health and Care ICS, the NHS organisation that commissions the majority of healthcare services for over 225,000 people in North-east Hampshire and Farnham.  The area is broken down in to five localities where we operate with the existing GP practices.  In the Farnham locality we also collaborate with FICS*.

The patient population is generally healthy and well, with a higher than average life expectancy - 80 years for men, 84.5 years for women.  This is higher than the England average - 78 years for men and 82 years for women.  However there is a marked difference in life expectancy between the most and least affluent areas - up to 8.8 years difference for men and 10.4 years for women - which impacts how health services are commissioned.

Most people in the area experience a good standard of living; 60% are amongst the 20% most affluent nationally.  At the same time the area does have challenges: around 4,000 people (some 2% of the population) are in the 20% most deprived nationally.
