New charter seeks to redress balance
The Health Minister says treating mental and physical health issues will soon be given equal priority.
A new draft document, outlining her department's future responsibilities, will include a number of updated principles for the delivery of medical care.
These include giving users access to their records, reducing the Department's £11m deficit, and more.
Titled The National Health and Care Service (NHCS) Charter, the document is available online where it's under public consultation.
Kate Beecroft says it should provide much needed clarity:
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
