(asked on 5th February 2025) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many nursing shifts went unfilled at acute NHS trusts in each month since January 2020.
This question was answered on 18th February 2025
The Department does not hold the information requested. The Government is committed to ensuring that the National Health Service has the right people, in the right places, with the right skills to deliver the care patients need when they need it.
In summer 2025, we will publish a refreshed Long Term Workforce Plan to deliver the transformed health service we will build over the next decade, and treat patients on time again.
