Presentation Abstract: This study explores how social prescribing practitioners facilitate resource integration and value co-creation in complex care ecosystems. Responding to the increasing global burden of aging populations and multi-morbidity, we investigate the integration of resources to co-create value in the shift towards person-centred care. Through a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design that incorporates photovoice methodology, the study identifies resource configurations and forms of value co-created through the lens of social prescribing practitioners. A transformative service theory lens informs a proposed framework mapping actor ecosystem readiness and interactions, providing insights into value co-creation and co-destruction across multiple system levels in social prescribing interventions.
