Closed petition Form cross party committee to agree strategy & funding of the NHS & care support

Closed on

We need to agree a long term strategy for the NHS, to ensure we maximise our incredible resources and expertise. We have difficult choices to make: modernising to ensure we offer a consistent 7 day service; identify a way to fund the increasing demand; and how we fund elderly care in the community.

We have an increasingly ageing population with improved medical advances. The service needs to remove the administrative burdens and focus on efficient world class care, which will require moving to a manufacturing shift pattern impacting ALL staff, requiring cross party support.
To maximise the use of hospital beds we need to review the control & funding of aftercare/nursing homes to ensure quality and remove the bottlenecks between the NHS and local authorities, changes to tax structure?
