Some thoughts from my colleague
@ninahemmings.bsky.social
on what the immigration white paper means for social care. Vacancies are still high & the plan for boosting the domestic pipeline is a long way off so stopping overseas recruitment now risks leaving a void in the short term.

Our new analysis out today looks at the deteriorating finances of NHS trusts. NHS trusts consume over 75% of the English NHS budget, so if you want to know how the NHS is coping with its current funding, your starting point should be the doubling of the trust overspend to £1.2bn by March 2024 >>
