PM to unveil 10-year plan for NHS - in 'one of most seismic shifts' in the health service's history
- On Thursday, the UK government will publish a 10-year NHS plan to establish neighbourhood health centres and shift care closer to communities across England.
- This plan arises from concerns over a health system in crisis, with leaders calling for reform or risk the NHS's sustainability amid long waiting lists and staff shortages.
- The plan aims to 'fundamentally rewire' the NHS by enabling outpatient care outside hospitals, training thousands more GPs, integrating dental care within community teams, and adopting digital technologies like AI.
- Health Secretary Wes Streeting called it one of the most significant transformations ever seen in healthcare, while Sir Keir Starmer emphasized that the NHS must undergo major reforms to remain viable and provide care whenever it is needed.
- The plan's success depends on investment, workforce support, and decentralization, but critics warn of a social care crisis and workforce shortages that could hinder its implementation.
