Here is my selection of top news stories on the NHS

published in the last twenty-four hours. They are MUST READ articles, in my view.Check them out!

If you still  need more convincing, take a very careful look at the Department of Health’s business plan for the next three years and also David Cameron’s vision for the future of NHS.

This leads me, very sadly, to the following open question:
