Assessing the Government's 10-year health plan: Enhancing support for prevention and recovery in England - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
"Eighteen months into the UK government's ten-year health strategy, it has become essential to evaluate its progress and explore ways to bolster its effectiveness. The strategy aims to get England "fit for the future" by focusing on these three specific shifts: Delivering better care in hospitals, to homes, in communities and in primary care Enhance digital transformation of service delivery Boost services treating sickness to one focused on preventing illness from occurring in the first place"
"Working alongside the 10-year health plan is the UK government's drug strategy, introduced in December 2021, which focuses on three main pillars: prevention, treatment, and recovery. It aims to reduce demand for drugs, improve access to treatment services, and support individuals in their recovery journeys. Drug-related deaths are slowly creeping up, underscoring the urgency of the situation. The strategy's implementation has included increased funding for treatment services, a commitment to improve access to rehabilitation, and initiatives to tackle drug supply chains."
Eighteen months after rollout, the ten-year UK health strategy targets shifting care into hospitals, homes, communities and primary care, accelerating digital transformation, and moving services toward preventing illness. Rising illicit drug use and slowly increasing drug-related deaths create urgent public health pressures. The December 2021 drug strategy emphasizes prevention, treatment, and recovery, with increased funding, commitments to improved rehabilitation access, and measures against supply chains. Persistent barriers hinder timely, effective treatment for many people with addiction. The NHS faces severe resource constraints and long waiting times. Implementing innovative, scalable solutions is necessary to reduce demand, improve access, and support recovery outcomes.
