Health Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to include policies on self-care within the forthcoming 10-year Health Plan.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The 10-Year Health Plan will describe a shared vision for the health and care system in 2035, drawing directly from the extensive engagement that has been undertaken with the public, patients, and staff. The plan will set out how care models and pathways will need to change or evolve to better meet their needs, and the cultural and behavioural changes we want to see. The plan’s shift from sickness to prevention will help ensure the National Health Service uses its relationship with patients to help patients improve and protect their own health.
