Can you explain that to me?
7:24
Yeah, so I think, um, uh, like obviously healthcare, um, is still, but it has traditionally kind of been about treating disease.
7:32
Um, which, um, you know, kind of makes sense.
7:34
You've got, um, you know, specialisms of doctors that are actually trained to diagnose and treat disease.
7:40
But, you know, I think, um, the, the broader perspective that's now coming in, um, to a lot of the work that we do in mental health, but also to what GPs are doing, is that broader wellbeing perspective.
7:54
So if you've got, um, if you look at, you know, if not just, um, you know, the, the social prescribing, which is essentially the connecting with, um, you know, community orgs and connecting with groups, um, and then green scripts, which is, um, it can be kind of going out into, um, the environment doing exercise, or it can be as part of a group.
8:17
Those two have really started to, you know, break that kind of nexus of just looking at disease treatment, and really about how do we improve the well- our wellbeing and both our mental and physical wellbeing, and that actually improves our health outcomes as well.
