Neighbourhood health teams are in the news again today, set to be a central part of the forthcoming NHS 10-year plan.

These services work best with rehab at their core, and AHP leadership driving them forward.

Our panel outlined why at #NHSConfedExpo this week.

'A pharmacist wouldn’t hand out 40% of a course of antibiotics.

📢 Stigma around people in poverty, benefits and welfare is key to understanding why poverty is still deemed acceptable in a country as wealthy as the UK.

Read our recent report on stigma below: www.jrf.org.uk/stigma-power...
Poverty stigma: a glue that holds poverty in place
Poverty stigma exacerbates shamefully high rates of poverty in the UK. It can affect health as much as trying to survive on a low income. How do we combat it?
