NHS to take responsibility for social care
The NHS is to be given far greater responsibility for social care under plans expected to be announced by the government in coming days, HSJ understands.
In what is claimed by Department of Health sources to be the most radical change to the NHS in decades, a paper to be published by health secretary Andy Burnham on the future “vision” for health policy is thought to include proposals to give the health service much greater involvement in social care.
The vision, considered a trailer for Labour’s manifesto commitments on health policy, is expected to emphasise the need for much closer integration of acute services, community services and social care.
