The Health and Care Act 2022 and community nursing

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Iwan Dowie explores the provisions of the Health and Care Act 2022 and its impact on community nursing. The legislation aims to promote the involvement of service users in the decision-making process for their healthcare planning. While this has been on the government's agenda for decades, limitations such as staff shortages and increase caseloads have resulted in a lack of progress.
