Dr. Sandesh Gulhane, the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party’s spokesperson for health and social care, and many more share insights on the subjects that matter to healthcare professionals in June’s Healthcare Today Digest.
“I envision a healthcare system that is modern, efficient, locally delivered, and universally accessible. Achieving this vision requires fundamental change…”
As the only medical professional working in Holyrood, Dr. Sandesh Gulhane is uniquely positioned to talk about the needs of the NHS in Scotland.
In an exclusive interview with Healthcare Today’s Adrian Murdoch, the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party’s spokesperson for health and social care talks about why funding for primary care should more than double to 15% of the NHS budget and why managers within the healthcare system should be enablers rather than gatekeepers.
Also in this issue, Richard Baish, development manager at Action on Postpartum Psychosis, talks about the most severe form of postnatal mental illness and how it should be treated; Emma Hewat, director of dementia care at care home company KYN, writes that regular engagement with music can help maintain and even improve cognitive abilities in older adults; and much more.
