Annotation | This is one of ten background papers providing. detailed analysis and support for the report, Engaging With Care: A Vision For The Health And Care Workforce Of England, published by the Nuffield Trust in September 2007. The report, together with the set of background papers, provides an analysis of current policies and trends and identifies routes for future action. The report identifies trends and challenges that can help define the common ground in health and care policy, while allowing for different policy directions at national and local levels. This paper sets out the major trends in diseases, lifestyle choices, changes in society, anticipated demographic change, and changing expectations of health and care services. It also presents a picture of the wider context within which social changes occur, namely changes in the UK economy and labour force, and trends in health technologies. (RH) |
