The Modern NHS • Led by Transforming Community Services (2008) • Darzi Report (2008) High Quality Care for all • No Health without Mental Health (2011) • Valuing People (2010) • Liberating the NHS – “no decision about me without me” (2010) • NHS Commissioning Boards and Groups • World wide recession – 20 Billion by 2014/15 • Francis (2013) • 5 year forward plan (2014)

  3. Care closer to home • We have an ageing population and increased complexity in providing health care. • Match this with a move to manage people closer to home (including avoidance of admission and facilitation of early discharge) and the level of complexity and acuity in the community is increasing. • This places an increased demand on what is seen as a traditional role of the community nurse where nurses are now needing increasingly advanced skills to manage patients effectively. • The community is becoming an increasingly challenging and rewarding place to work…..
