This from @CAM_Paddison @NuffieldTrust is one of the best things I’ve read in ages. 1/4

2/4 Local population data on people with multiple conditions could provide a useful proxy to generate the focus Charlotte writes about. Resonates with @RichmondGroup14 work in this webinar series: and this report: richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/sites/default/…
3/4 Yes, workforce issues, but much boils down to how general practice frames its approach. This e.g. from @RichmondGroup14 update of Multiple Conditions Guidebook shows how @padsbigsis + colleagues continued Year of Care work virtually during pandemic: richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/sites/default/… GIF about Gateshead case st...

It’s never reassuring when people’s health needs have to wait in a queue behind political considerations. What’s trailed here will help but fundamentally people need the money unlocked so the NHS can move lists forward with the wider plans.

2/5 People aren’t waiting for the right target to be set. They’re waiting for action and the help they need. They see Government providing the resources as the key. See this @RichmondGroup14 @BritainThinks research: richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/sites/default/… Chart from p51 of report.
3/5 Tackling waiting lists quickly and well must be central for the NHS. An end to the physical and mental pain so many people suffer while waiting for treatment can’t come too soon. We’re being told today that “the grown-ups are in charge” of government. A chance to prove it.

Two months from today, I’ll be walking solo along the 26 miles of the London Marathon course to help @TrussellTrust in its #RaceAgainstHunger. Talk of #LevellingUp today, so I’ve been reflecting on links between food insecurity and health. 1/4

2/4 The UK Poverty 2022 report by @jrf_uk sets out the size and consequences of this problem. Strong resonance for me with the things I’ve worked on at @RichmondGroup14 in relation to health inequity and multiple long-term conditions.

Today’s #StateOfCare report from @CareQualityComm assesses impact of the pandemic and the challenges for health/care integration. cqc.org.uk/publications/m…
Highlights issues CQC will need to focus on in its new ICS oversight role. Here’s a thread of what leaps out at me 🧵👇 1/15 Cover of CQC report: The state of health care and adult soci
2/15 Throughout #StateOfCare I can see signs of how closely @CareQualityComm has listened to what @RichmondGroup14 and other voluntary sector organisations have said consistently during the year. Also good to see insight from @ageukcampaigns @Rethink_ @RedCrossPolicy being used.
3/15 Strong message in #StateOfCare about unmet need (a key issue we’ve highlighted) and risk that failure to address social care workforce issues would turn ripple of knock-on effects into a “tsunami”. Good to see call for further discharge funding, noting role of VCSE here. Text from State of Care foreword: “The alternative is thatText from State of Care foreword: “Increased stability in

These reports on NHS leaders’ perceptions from @NHSConfed are always enlightening. Today’s Manifesto For Recovery takes a wide look at recovery issues, with a strong inequalities focus. A quick thread on the bits that jumped out at me. 1/7

2/7 Obviously I’m reading everything @NHSConfed’s published today from the standpoint of the multiple conditions challenge. The framing here speaks to the issues @RichmondGroup14’s recent #YouOnlyHadToAsk report highlighted. richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/sites/default/… NHS leaders want to make sure that inequalities are not exac

2/8. Good to see the guidance discussing the links with cancer alliances and other clinical networks. @RichmondGroup14 members have been keen to stress throughout the ICS development process how important these networks are for a range of conditions incl stroke and respiratory.

1/18 I know you love a thread, so here’s one about today’s new report #YouOnlyHadToAsk from the Taskforce on Multiple Conditions, led by @RichmondGroup14 and @ImpUrbanHealth. Hear the voices of people living where multiple conditions meet health inequity. richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/taskforce-mult… Image of report cover. ‘You only had to ask: what people w
2/18 My foreword highlights how rarely voices like these are *really* listened to. Yesterday Lord Stevens, in his farewell to @NHSEngland staff, said that the NHS is at its best when it listens hardest. If that’s the case, it needs to be all ears now. We all do. #YouOnlyHadToAsk Foreword. There are crucial decisions ahead for health and s
3/18 This bit of the foreword is about the power of the voices that don’t shout the loudest. That can be just as true of frontline professionals as it is of the people who told us about deeply personal, sometimes traumatic experiences. Thanks to all of them. #YouOnlyHadToAsk Very little is as deeply powerful as a clear, quiet human vo
