• Leaders establish the vision for the future and set the strategy for getting there; they cause change
• They motivate and inspire others to go in the right direction and they, along with everyone else, sacrifice to get there
'Equity and excellence:Liberating the NHS'
• “The NHS today faces great challenges:
• It must respond to the demands of an increasing and ageing population, advances in medical technology and rising expectations;
• It remains stifled by a culture of top-down bureaucracy, which blocks the creativity and innovation of its staff; and
• It does not deliver outcomes in line with the best health services internationally – many of our survival rates for disease are worse than those of our neighbours”.
“The NHS must be equipped to meet these challenges....
• – we believe it can do much better for patients. So today, I am publishing this White Paper, Equity and Excellence: Liberating the NHS:
• so that we can put patients right at the heart of decisions made about their care;
• to put clinicians in the driving seat on decisions about services; and
• to focus the NHS on delivering health outcomes that are comparable with, or even better than, those of our international neighbours.
• A patient led NHS – Personalising care– putting patients at the heart of everything we do
• Delivering better health– a focus on outcomes – eg 1 yr cancer survival
• Empower physicians– autonomy with accountability
• The Public’s health– Prioritise prevention –
• Social reform– LTCs and social care
The main aims of the White Paper are:
• i. Putting patients and the public first;• ii. Focusing on improvement in quality and
healthcare outcomes;• iii. Autonomy, accountability and democratic
legitimacy; and• iv. Cutting bureaucracy and increasing
efficiency.
“It is not the strongest of the species
that survive,
not the most intelligent,
but the one most responsive to change”
