How does the NHS in England work and how is it changing?

The UK is now 50,000 doctors short and is struggling to cope with the sheer workload in hospitals and surgeries across the country.

The description of the structure is upside down. You should have started at the top, because restrictions imposed by the decisions at the top will filter down to the front line. "The Department of Health and Social Care  sets out what the NHS is expected to deliver for  the money  it gets from the government , which comes from our taxes. It also holds budgets for some of the other areas that have an impact on our wellbeing, like public health.   NHS England, which is the national body for the NHS in England, and sets the operational priorities  for the health system.  Integrated care systems  get most of their money from NHS England Integrated care systems are made up of two parts: integrated care boards and integrated care partnerships.  Integrated care boards decide how the NHS budget for their area is spent and develop a plan to improve people’s health, deliver higher-quality care and better value for money.  Integrated care partnerships bring the NHS together with other key partners, like local authorities, to develop a strategy to enable the integrated care system to improve health and wellbeing in its area." You can see how budgetary restrictions from the government will determine how successful this revamp is.

A complicated way if saying privatisation involving unwanted large US companies is moving along at a pace.

Thank you for this video. it's very informative on the new system of funding for the NHS and how better services are being provided.

This is an informative video which depicts the collaborative working of the people involved in the NHS delivering their great work.

Thank you for the video It is always very helpful and informative. I find it interesting to contrast it's your previous videos about the structure of the NHS and interesting to see how some things may have come full circle.

Do give us a call when it's time for an update!

Very good animation! Keep it going 💪

This is so simplistic its CARTOON!

Thank you for sharing this very informative video

Still didn't explain how that changes healthcare. All departments should be working together anyway now they have the legal right to... so no changes then.

Great explaination

Nice animation including lots of references to the role of local authorities, voluntary sector and communities working alongside NHS. Interesting that it makes no mention of the significant role that private healthcare businesses will play in future ICS decision-making and delivery. Seems a bit dishonest to airbrush that out.

Is it true that in these times of increasing demand for health care, the government has reduced the number of medical student intake at university??

Privatization is a major threat to the NHS which is not mentioned in the video as it drains much needed resources from frontline services into the pockets of profit driven private companies.

Unfortunately, the UK has the second lowest number of beds per 1000 people in the whole of Europe.

How would people reform the NHS?

How does the NHS work? That’s the thing it doesn’t.

Quite useful information in the words, but impossible to take it in because of the fatuous and distracting pictures.
