Event details
The landscape of the health and care system in England is challenging and complex, and the system is facing profound challenges. At this event, which will take place virtually over two days, policy and leadership experts from The King’s Fund will help you gain a greater understanding of how the health and care system in England works and how it is changing, giving balanced and honest views about the pressures and opportunities it faces.
In the run-up to the anticipated general election, our experts will also explore which health and care topics are likely to dominate at the election and which are not, and what this means for people working in the sector.
Delegates will:
- make sense of how the NHS is structured and funded
- learn how various components at system, place and neighbourhood levels come together to create integrated care systems (ICSs)
- gain an understanding of the key components of primary care and the role they play in the health care system
- hear about health inequalities and how groups from the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector support wider efforts to improve health inequalities
- gain a clear understanding of how the social care system is structured, who works in it, and how it is funded
- learn about the current pressures facing the health care workforce and what this means for the sustainability of the system
- have the opportunity, through a dedicated session, to ask any questions not answered throughout the event.
