Parkinson's Disease: Health Professions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to include steps to (a) grow and (b) upskill the Parkinson's specialist workforce in the (i) ten year and (ii) long-term workforce plan.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The 10-Year Health Plan will set out how we will deliver a National Health Service that is fit for the future, with a better service for everyone, regardless of condition or service area. We expect that the long-term workforce plan will need to be updated to reflect that plan, so that we train the staff we need to ensure that all patients are cared for by the right professional, when and where they need it.
