Anaesthetist Dr Kevin Fong, tells the story of the NHS today and the challenges it faces, from the perspective of the people who deliver the care. In the last episode, Kevin reveals how solutions devised by the workforce during the pandemic could be key to the future success of the NHS.

The National Health Service is the world鈥檚 oldest public health system and one of the largest employers on the planet. So, if you want a masterclass in how to face down a challenge that should have been insurmountable, you need look no further than the thousands of teams, working in every corner of the NHS during COVID. It鈥檚 here where teams used their frontline experience to solve problems from the bottom up.

So could these locally-sourced solutions also help to tackle wider problems across the service, like reducing costs, while also addressing key issues like staff burnout and the steady flow of people leaving the NHS?
