"Many areas are already providing high-quality care in line with best practice, and by supporting others to come up to the same standard, we can deliver faster, more joined-up and better care for thousands more people - supporting them to stay well in their own homes."
People with the conditions will be able to better manage their symptoms at home and be more active in making decisions over their treatment.
