The National Health Service has just published its new Long Term Plan and local organisation Healthwatch Sheffield is looking for people’s views to help the scheme be implemented.
Key priorities in the plan are cancer, mental health, multi morbidity, healthy ageing (especially dementia), children’s health, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and learning disability and autism.
The Long Term Plan is going to be high on the agenda locally and nationally – at a local level, Healthwatch Sheffield, based at The Circle on Rockingham Lane in the city centre, wants to ensure that people’s views are used to help shape implementation of the plan as part of a programme being coordinated by Healthwatch England. Over the coming weeks and months it will be working to ensure that as many people as possible will have an opportunity to have their say on what the Long Term Plan means.
Healthwatch Sheffield’s Chief Officer Margaret Kilner highlights some key messages and explains how Healthwatch Sheffield will be involved in the next steps here.
