The Forum was asked to conduct conversations with health and care professionals, patients and service users; and to provide independent advice on education and training, information, integrated care, and the NHS’s role in public health.
The recommendations have been accepted following the Future Forum’s report, specifically on:
· education and training – employers and professionals will have a greater say in developing the health workforce in the future, and an outcomes framework will be introduced
· integrated care – patient experience of integrated care will be measured as part of the outcomes framework
· the NHS’s role in public health – consultation will be held on a new responsibility for healthcare professionals to promote healthy living through their daily contact with patients
· information – the government will consider the Forum’s recommendation for Discharge Summaries to be made available to GPs and patients at the point of discharge.
The Forum listened to over 11,000 people at more than 300 events, and received contributions online.
