Department of Health and Social Care has launched their 10-year review of the NHS Constitution. The NHS constitution sets out the principles, values, rights and pledges underpinning the NHS as a comprehensive health service, free at the point of use for all who need it.
The NHS Constitution empowers patients, staff and the public to know and exercise their rights in order to help drive improvements in quality, efficiency and responsiveness throughout the NHS.
Department of Health and Social Care are seeking views on how best to change the NHS Constitution. To complete the consultation survey (as an individual or on behalf of your organisation), please visit: https://consultations.dhsc.gov.uk/en/660d21db9ecc4223dd0174bf.
The consultation period will close at 11.59pm on 25 June 2024.
