Download the NHS Key Worker Homes White Paper

Staffing is the most important issue currently facing the NHS and social care. NHS Trusts currently report a shortfall of more than 154,000 staff, and that shortfall is set to worsen, amid growing demand for health care. Reports suggest the figure could rise to 570,000 by 2036 .
