Somerset Playbook: Final Report and Action Plan

The Covid-19 pandemic is placing health and social care professionals across the world in unprecedented situations. In the UK, the NHS and local government have worked swiftly to reshape systems and processes to contain the infection and protect the most vulnerable within their communities. The pandemic now provides an opportunity to rethink not only how the health and social care workforce can effectively deliver services, but how to make these sectors better places for staff to work and particularly to encourage young people to consider careers within health and social care.
