Book excerpt: An engaging, inclusive history of the NHS, exploring its surprising survival--and the people who have kept it running In recent decades, a wave of appreciation for the NHS has swept across the UK. Britons have clapped for frontline workers and championed the service as a distinctive national achievement. All this has happened in the face of ideological opposition, marketization, and workforce crises. But how did the NHS become what it is today? In this wide-ranging history, Andrew Seaton examines the full story of the NHS. He traces how the service has changed and adapted, bringing together the experiences of patients, staff from Britain and abroad, and the service's wider supporters and opponents. He explains not only why it survived the neoliberalism of the late twentieth century but also how it became a key marker of national identity. Seaton emphasizes the resilience of the NHS--perpetually "in crisis" and yet perennially enduring--as well as the political values it embodies and the work of those who have tirelessly kept it afloat.

This book was released on 2006-01-11 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NHS Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) were created in 2002 to commission health services for their local populations, and are currently responsible for controlling about 80 per cent of the £76 billion NHS annual budget. In addition, PCTs have responsibility for public health, and many also provide community-based health services such as district nursing and community hospitals. The Committee's report examines the Government's proposals (set out in the Department of Health paper 'Commissioning a Patient-led NHS' published in July 2005, which can be downloaded at http://www.dh.gov.uk/assetRoot/04/11/67/17/04116717.pdf) to cut the number of PCTs and to contract out community health services by the end of 2008. The report raises a number of serious concerns about the proposals, including in relation to: failings in the consultation process; the impact of PCT restructuring and divestment of provider services; and the likelihood that the estimated financial savings of £250 million will be achieved.

Download or read book Poverty Knowledge in South Africa written by Grace Davie and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poverty is South Africa's greatest challenge. But what is 'poverty'? How can it be measured? And how can it be reduced if not eliminated? In South Africa, human science knowledge about the cost of living grew out of colonialism, industrialization, apartheid and civil resistance campaigns, which makes this knowledge far from neutral or apolitical. South Africans have used the Poverty Datum Line (PDL), Gini coefficients and other poverty thresholds to petition the state, to chip away at the pillars of white supremacy, and, more recently, to criticize the postapartheid government's failures to deliver on some of its promises. Rather than promoting one particular policy solution, this book argues that poverty knowledge teaches us about the dynamics of historical change, the power of racism in white settler societies, and the role of grassroots protest movements in shaping state policies and scientific categories. Readers will gain new perspectives on today's debates about social welfare, redistribution and human rights, and will ultimately find reasons to rethink conventional approaches to advocacy.

This book was released on 2008-01-24 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report, from the Committee of Public Accounts, follows on from an NAO report, (HC 604, session 2006-07, ISBN 9780102945614), and examines the prevalence and costs of dementia, diagnosis and early intervention, access to and quality of support services, and experiences of people with dementia in hospital and care homes. Dementia is a term for a range of progressive, terminal organic brain diseases. It affects about 560,000 people in England and costs the economy some £14 billion a year. The Committee has set out a number of conclusions and recommendations, including: that dementia has not been an NHS priority though, following the NAO report, the Department of Health is developing a National Dementia Strategy; that there is no single individual with responsibility or accountability for improving dementia services; that between a half and two-thirds of people with dementia never receive a formal diagnosis; that there is poor awareness amongst the public and some professionals of dementia; that people with dementia and their carers should be given a single health or social care professional contact point to improve the co-ordination of their care service; that between half and two-thirds of all carers do not receive the carer's assessment to which they are entitled; that 62 per cent of care home residents are currently estimated to have dementia, but less than 28 per cent of care home places are registered to provide specialist dementia care; that hospital care for people with dementai is often not well managed, increasing the risk of longer hospital stays, admission to a care home and a deterioration in the patient's health.
