Health Services: Women
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to help improve women's health in Gosport constituency.
Answered by Karin Smyth
We are committed to moving towards a neighbourhood health service, with more care delivered in local communities to spot problems earlier. Women’s health hubs are an example of this approach and can play a key role in delivering the Government’s commitments on tackling long National Health Service waiting lists, as well as shifting care into the community. The Department has invested £25 million to support the establishment of at least one pilot women’s health hub in every integrated care system.
We know that more needs to be done, and we will prioritise women’s health as we build an NHS fit for the future.
