Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of skills shortages within the NHS.
This question was answered on 17th November 2016
Working with local National Health Service organisations, Health Education England produces an annual National Workforce Plan for England, which sets out future training requirements for the NHS.
At a local level, it is the responsibility of NHS organisations to ensure that their staff, through Continuing Professional Development, have the ongoing skills required to deliver safe and effective care to patients.
