Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 September 2026

Debate

Integrated Care Boards: Access to Services

Contribution

My Lords, in some places, the relationship between community nurses and acute hospitals is good and patients receive what they think is a care pathway. In other places, the relationship between district nurses and GPs is incredibly problematic, and instead of there being a clear care pathway there is a blockage. What are ICBs going to do to make sure that everybody gets the best distribution of services, not the worst, as happens in some places?
