NHS: 5 January-11 JanuaryIn August 2019, Prime Minister Boris Johnson gave the green light to 20 new building and infrastructure projects for the NHS in England. The £850m package is intended to pay for new wards, intensive care units and diagnostic centres, as well as refurbishing some existing facilities over the next five years. Mr Johnson also said there would be an extra £1bn this year to improve and maintain existing buildings. In response, The Health Foundation said that NHS facilities in England were “in major disrepair” with a £6bn maintenance backlog. However, the head of NHS England, Simon Stevens, said the money was a “significant start” to “much needed capital investment.” Pray that the NHS continues to provide a quality service to those who need it. May any increases in funding be spent wisely and to the benefit of all. |
