Reviews
24 Hours to Save the NHS is a must-read for people working in the NHS and its critics.... And more importantly it leaves us with a compelling vision for the future., This book comes at a critical moment in the history of the NHS. It is essential reading for politicians, policymakers, professionals, and the public - Richard Horton, Editor, The Lancet, This insightful text is well structured and readable. It highlights important lessons that were learned from these years, including that private insurance is not the solution for some of the NHS gaps, and the need to focus more on areas such as health promotion and patient engagement., Crisp navigates clearly through the policy and the politics, and in its structure (the main points are boxed at the end ofeach chapter) and style, this resembles a textbook. If the present government does indeed care about health care - and wants to avoid a series of budget-busting hospital bailouts - its commitment should be to services, not facilities. It cannot afford to ignore Crisp's advice, and there is no time to lose., 'This book comes at a critical moment in the history of the NHS. It is essential reading for politicians, policymakers, professionals, and the public' - Richard Horton, Editor, The Lancet, 'Nigel Crisp is on the of the key thinkers and policymakers who has shaped our modern NHS. He has had a ring side seat when crucial and controversial political decisions have been made. He has also made those very decisions himself. For the first time he now gives his personal insights and perspectives on a lifetime of NHS reform. This book comes at a critical moment in the history of the NHS. It is essential reading for politicians, policymakers,professionals, and the public' - Richard Horton, Editor, The Lancet, "Nigel Crisp is on the of the key thinkers and policymakers who has shaped our modern NHS. He has had a ring side seat when crucial and controversial political decisions have been made. He has also made those very decisions himself. For the first time he now gives his personal insights andperspectives on a lifetime of NHS reform. This book comes at a critical moment in the history of the NHS. It is essential reading for politicians, policymakers, professionals, and the public" --Richard Horton, Editor, The Lancet, Crisps real achievement was in securing more NHS funding and making the health system in general look respectable again and one can only believe the stories he recalls of impressed patients approaching him to ask the way out of the private patients departments, only to find, to their surprise, that they were in NHS patients departments all along. It is purely a reflection, a personal account. Yet the author does not leave out criticisms of himself or his own work, and takes care toshow how he learned from these. This is the book of a proud man, and that is no bad thing at all, because he knows as we all do that the NHS is treasured.
