Corby survey finds majority of people are unaware of planned NHS changes

Corby survey finds majority of people are unaware of planned NHS changes Fewer than one in five people in Corby have heard of a major plan which could radically change local health services, according to a survey.

NHS Corby Clinical Commissioning Group carried out its healthcare survey across the population it commissions health services for. It found that just 16 per cent of respondents had heard of the county’s Sustainability and Transformation Plan (STP).

The five-year STP contains proposals for a joining of health and social care in the county, but there has been criticism of a lack of transparency surrounding the drawing up of the plans.

The CCG says that although this is a small proportion, it is still notably higher than that indicated in national polls. Northamptonshire Telegraph
