The 10-Year Health Plan is part of the government’s health mission to build a health service fit for the future. It sets out how the government will reinvent the NHS through three radical shifts:
➡️ Hospital to Community
➡️ Analogue to Digital
➡️ Sickness to Prevention.
Cardiovascular rehabilitation is well-placed to support this vision and needs to continue building on the good work happening in our speciality.
