NHS - ‘online hospital’. The NHS is setting up an ‘online hospital’. The new model of care will not have a physical site, instead digitally connecting patients to expert clinicians anywhere in England. The first patients will be able to use the service from 2027. When a patient has an appointment with their GP, they will have the option of being referred to the online hospital for their specialist care. They will then be able to book directly through the NHS App and have the ability to see specialists from around the country online without leaving their home or having to wait longer for a face-to-face appointment..

A new report from Age UK examines how the health of older people and the strength of the social care system have changed in the past 10 years. Key findings include: Male and female health life expectancy has declined, reducing from 19.9 to 19.4 years in men aged 50-54, and from 21.1 years to 20.6 years for women of the same age. 68% of people aged over 80 are living with two or more long-term health conditions. The total number of older people receiving care from their local council has slowly increased in the last two years. Since the NHS published its Five-Year Forward View, the number of district nurses has decreased by 19%. Overall, the report reveals that while more of us are living longer, on many other measures we have gone backwards. Fewer people are getting long-term social care support, fewer key health staff are working in the community, and perhaps worst of all, we are living fewer years in good health.
