NHS warns over social care funding
NHS leaders have warned the Government not to saddle the health service with the costs of a long-term funding gap of £2 billion a year for social care.
A new report by the NHS Confederation says that while use of NHS funds to plug the shortfall now is a "necessary sticking plaster", continued dipping into healthcare coffers would have a severe impact on patients.
