The NHS: From the Cradle to the Gravy Train
Manage episode 353080831 series 3437729
How Britain’s postwar dreams were stolen… and how to win them back. This time: The NHS was the prize for all the pain and sacrifice of the Second World War. When did we accept that it would be a service in perpetual decline? Ros Taylor talks to experts from senior policy planners to Casualty scriptwriters to discover how the NHS became a huge entity in permanent crisis – why it holds such a grip on our collective imagination – and how to rescue it.
- “I have never seen NHS morale lower than it is now.” – Camilla Cavendish
- “It’s only when you really need the ΝΗS and experience it that you realise something terrible is going on within our society.” – Rachel Clarke
- “The NHS has pockets of world-class excellence and also, sadly, pockets of disaster and despair.” – Camilla Cavendish
- “We wouldn’t fund paediatrics from jumble sales or sponsored abseils… But that’s what we do with end of life care.” – Rachel Clarke
