The Future NHS Workforce
The need for new nurses, midwives, and health care professionals was highlighted in the NHS Long Term Workforce plan, in which the NHS committed to increasing nursing training places by 80% by 2031/32.
It’s something Amanda Pritchard, CEO of NHS England, spoke about when she visited LSBU earlier this year, highlighting the role LSBU plays in supporting the workforce plan - particularly as LSBU trains 1/4 of all new nurses in London!
