Working in partnership with the pharmaceutical industry: observations from an NHS pharmacist
Share
Dear Colleagues
Now is a time of upheaval and change within the NHS. It is also an opportunity for us all to reconsider some of our preconceptions and prejudices, which may have become entrenched over the past few years. Will Horsley is never one to shy away from such challenges and, in this month’s issue of Cancer Services Forum, he provides a typically thought-provoking article on why we should all think again about our working relationships with the pharmaceutical industry.
Also, for those of you who haven’t quite had time to digest all the detail of the proposed changes to the NHS and to cancer services over recent months, Carolyn Staines provides an extremely useful summary of the major points affecting funding and commissioning, as well as key issues from the recently published Improving outcomes: a strategy for cancer.
I hope you enjoy reading this latest issue of Cancer Services Forum.
