NHS at 75 Insights Report | National Voices

NHS at 75 Insights Report | National Voices | UK social care and health policy | Scoop.it

In May 2023, National Voices brought together around 50 members and people with lived experience in response to an invitation from the NHS Assembly to offer insights and recommendations on future directions for the NHS in the lead up to its 75th anniversary. 

Insights were sought around five key themes, and discussions were informed by an overview from existing evidence prepared by Healthwatch England.  

The themes were: 

  1. Prevention 
  2. Personalisation 
  3. Participation: 
  4. Primary and community care 
  5. Partnerships  

Our report found that any future developments within the NHS must focus on responding to what matters to people and ensuring that the basic building blocks are in place, such as equity of access and simple communication.
