Time to get serious about transformation says NHS Confederation in response to CQC report

Danny Mortimer, deputy chief executive of the NHS Confederation, which represents organisations across the healthcare sector, responded to the CQC’s State of Care report

“This concerning report makes it clear that it’s time to get serious about transformation. The delivery of integrated care at scale must be central to the long-term plan for the NHS and supported too by the long overdue green paper for social care.

“Without a properly funded, well organised and integrated system we will continue staggering from one crisis to the next.

“The challenge for local health and social care systems will be to deploy combined resources in the most effective way possible to provide improved care to an older and increasingly dependent population.

“National leaders need to provide the certainty around investment and priorities, most especially in social care.”
