Almost three-quarters of NHS professionals do not think that quality of care in the NHS is given enough priority, according to a survey published in a King’s Fund report on patient-centred leadership.
The survey, which took place after the publication of Robert Francis’s report, also found that 40% thought that the quality of leadership in the NHS as a whole was poor or very poor, in contrast to 11% in their own service or team.
