Nuffield Trust Chief Executive, @theasrstein.bsky.social, has shared reflections on what the Covid Inquiry's health systems report tells us about the NHS during the crisis, and the challenges the health service faces today.

Last week, we heard from Baroness Casey about the need to look at what's happening across the country as a whole when planning social care reform. 📽️ Watch Baroness Casey’s Nuffield Trust speech: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kw0...

🆕 Reflecting on a session at last week’s Nuffield Trust Summit, @leonoramerry.bsky.social discusses the growing gap between experts, institutions and the public when it comes to science and health care. #ntsummit www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk/news-item/fo...

At last week's Summit, @teuntoebes.bsky.social highlighted how a zero‑risk mindset can undermine quality of life. Teun believes that a shift in perspective can lead to real change in how people experience care. Watch Teun's #ntsummit talk in full: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TC5...

...family agency, as well as that of the person in care, gets lost in the process. Not bigger things so much as family has quite a significant voice on those. It's the little things. The things that probably matter more than anything because it's all that the person and family have left between them

Humanitarian activist @teuntoebes.bsky.social has a mission: to improve the quality of life of people living with dementia. It involves rethinking how we manage risk while still allowing people to live fulfilling lives. Teun's powerful #ntsummit talk is now available on YouTube. 👉 buff.ly/IqJIRWv

Our closing session challenged us to rethink what living well at home really means. For our #ntsummit panelist, Martha, her dog Greg made a huge difference. 🐕‍🦺

Steve Richards' choice of theme even more timely than usual, ahead of today's news on digital ID. U-turns can free a govt, but can just as easily undermine commitment to other plans - the purpose behind it all matters.

Why are a persistent proportion of NHS hospital beds being occupied by patients who have already completed their treatment? Our researcher Emma Dodsworth told the BBC that factors include the complexity of individual cases, the lack of NHS and social care integration, and the ageing UK population.
