Neighbourhood Health and Social Care
My Lords, integration is harder than colocation. For instance, housing and social isolation are key detriments to health, yet they sit outside the NHS. Therefore, a social worker sitting next to a GP may be helpful, but the reality is that this social wo

My Lords, I align myself with the comments that have been made by the noble Lord, Lord Kamall, and the noble Baroness, Lady Pidgeon. This a totally devastating outcome. I pay tribute to the families that have been affected in this way.

Breast Cancer Screening: Women Over 70

Migraine Care: 10-year Health Plan
My Lords, as has already been mentioned, over 10 million people in the UK suffer from migraine, and it is highly prevalent in women. It is also linked to anxiety and depression. I welcome what the Government are doing in extending women’s health hubs and

GP Contract
I welcome some of the criteria that are going to be used, particularly for deprived communities, in relation to access, but there remains a postcode lottery in terms of access to GPs, particularly in deprived communities. My concern is that, with some of

Baby Milk Powder: Cereulide
My Lords, of course the best food for babies comes from breastfeeding. May I advocate that we should not lose sight of the fact that many mothers do breastfeed? But I understand the anguish and fear that mothers who cannot breastfeed have had in relation

NHS: Corridor Care
My Lords, in a recent survey 78% of physicians reported undertaking corridor care. It is becoming almost the norm all the year round. It affects patients’ dignity, health and safety, and patient outcomes, because there are greater infection rates. I welc

Early Years Education
My Lords, I come back to screen time. There is significant evidence now that, for young children, particularly under the age of five, spending a lot of time on screens actually changes the neural pathways in their brains. We understand that gap and so th
