Description

In this week’s episode of Health on the Line, host Matthew Taylor is joined by interim permanent secretary for the Department of Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland and former NHS Confederation chief executive Mike Farrar. 


Together the pair discuss the ambitions of the reset plan for health and social care in Northern Ireland published in July this year. They also touch on the importance of empowering chief executives to act as partners in health care delivery.  


Farrar stresses that finding new ways to engage and empower the public to improve their health is vital to successfully implementing the neighbourhood health model.  


We also hear from Rebecca Gale, assistant director of the Primary Care Network at the NHS Confederation, to discuss issues relating the lack of availability of NHS dental care in parts of the UK. 


Health on the Line is an NHS Confederation podcast produced by HealthCommsPlus.
