London
The NHS Confederation is the membership organisation that brings together,
supports and speaks for the whole healthcare system in England, Wales and
Northern Ireland. Integration and partnership working are the driving force of
healthcare. We promote collaboration and partnership working as the key to
improving population health, delivering high-quality care and reducing health
inequalities. This is our central focus. We support integration across our
membership, connecting different parts of the health and care system to share
learning and develop solutions to shared challenges. The members we represent
employ over 1.5 million staff, care for more than 1 million patients a day and
control £150 billion of public expenditure. We support our members in three main
ways: We represent organisations and sectors, to ensure local organisations and
systems work in the best interests of service users, citizens and staff. We
connect the whole healthcare system, to boost system working and develop
solutions to shared challenges. We support leaders to develop and hone their
leadership skills, equipping leaders with tools, ideas and insights and
connecting them with a community of leaders.
