& #39;There is clearly an appetite for reform in social care& #39; Sir Chris Wormald. Qs @CommonsPAC from @gaganmohindra about why the #NHSLongTermPlan #OurNHSPeople plan didn& #39;t span social care as well as health. @CNOEngland asked about her involvement in the people plan.
. @CNOEngland says she is well involved in #OurNHSPeople plan with @Prerana_Issar (who is the SRO), and has been since her start. Issar asked about whether plan has been updated dues to #COVID19 @CommonsPAC
Thank goodness for that, @prerana_issar states @CommonsPAC: the people plan is & #39;ready to be published as soon as possible& #39;. Goes on to say 2 parts; & #39;one on creating the support on what NHS staff need& #39;.
On the support that staff need @Prerana_Issar, important to remember when thinking about nurses (the focus of todays @CommonsPAC) must consider recent report on female nurse suicide. This was a problem pre #COVID19!: https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/ncish/suicide-by-female-nurses/">https://sites.manchester.ac.uk/ncish/sui... @Meg_HillierMP @gaganmohindra

& #39;What is problem with department getting a grip?& #39; @Meg_HillierMP not letting go on point of social care sector; & #39;we have a shortage, a challenge of supply& #39;. Wormald talks about vacancy rate in NHS & social care being similar & #39;work talked about today will benefit both& #39; @CommonsPAC
Qs from @bernardjenkin to Wormald on #NursingWorkforce data @CommonsPAC. McDonough we have 3 main foci; domestic supply, international supply and retention & returners. She highlights the additional money available to student nurses who do higher need fields, #MentalHealth & LD&A
& #39;Nurse are trained not just in the NHS...what& #39;s really critical is understanding from our perspective, how many nurses go into that process...but we have always engaged with a large range of stakeholders in social care& #39; @MRadford_HEECN @NHS_HealthEdEng @CommonsPAC
. @bernardjenkin asks @Prerana_Issar & #39;How do you decide how much money should be devoted to recruitment, and how much directed on retention?& #39; Issar talks about @NursingTimes survey and how there is a large focus on retention. 3 factors from NHS Staff Survey: @CommonsPAC
