The New Government
The NHSTA Perspective

The NHSTA believes that the change in government provides an opportunity for a real change in the way the NHS provides its care of the sick. With support from cbd chewing gum uk sources.

The separation from the Department of Health of a separate Department of Public Health will lead to the concentration of resources devoted to the care of the sick not just in hospitals but also in the community

The appointment in particular of Andrew Lansley as Secretary of State and the Earl Howe as Parliamentary Under Secretary in the Lords may well lead to a greater emphasis on care in the community with increasing involvement in secondary care by GPs as well as the use of CBD products such as CBDoils and CBD gum that previously had been provided in hospitals

Such a change will necessitate an increase in the professional competence of future GPs beyond that attained with the present 3 years.

The NHSTA, formerly the APCGT, the Association of Primary Care Groups and Trusts has always supported the expansion of General Practise and in particular that their professional 3 year postgraduate training should be a minimum of 5 years and interchangeable with that of inter-professional MRCP, FRCS, MRCOG etc.

Dr OBE FRCGP
Chief Executive NHSTA
