Covid-19 has changed how the UK thinks about healthcare forever. The pandemic put the NHS – how it works, how it is funded and what its future might be - at the centre of the biggest news story of our lifetimes.
This historic challenge has demanded significant sacrifices from NHS clinicians and patients, but has also sparked extraordinary fresh thinking, creativity and innovation across our healthcare system.
The next decade will present daunting structural challenges to our service. Nowhere is this pressure on the NHS felt more acutely than at the local level. Across the country primary care is at the fulcrum point where national health strategy meets local clinical need. The challenges they face are immense and growing, but our collective response to Covid-19 shows how we can begin to tackle them.
