The government published the 10 year health plan in July 2025. The plan aims to deliver 3 big shifts in how the NHS is run; NIHR research can support these shifts.
- Hospital to community: more care will be available on people’s doorsteps and in their homes. A recent NIHR webinar discussed evidence to support the effective implementation of hospital at home and virtual wards.
- Analogue to digital: new technology will liberate staff from admin and allow people to manage their care more easily. A previous Collection explored 10 examples of NIHR research on AI applications that could transform the NHS.
- Sickness to prevention: the NHS will reach patients earlier and make the healthy choice the easy choice. NIHR research shows that the NHS Health Check is reducing cardiovascular diseases and improving prevention of other diseases through early detection and timely intervention
