A Manifesto for Health Education
11 Mar 2015
This manifesto sets out a road-map and the steps which the next government must take to secure the education and training of the health and social care workforce of the future. The government must commit to a significant increase in investment in education and professional development to improve patient care, deliver innovation and the integration of services. The manifesto also points out that the NHS and Social Care Act has led to greater fragmentation in the delivery of health education in England and that Trusts are increasing their use of agency staff and recruiting overseas to address staff shortages.
