Paragraph 5.26 (Health and Wellbeing) - We aim to provide health care facilities in a timely manner that is in line with the growth. The physical building of a health and/or social facility or improving one is relatively acquirable in most circumstances but there is currently a national shortage of NHS staff in both primary care and secondary care causing capacity issues. LPAs can help aid recruitment by providing local communities that will attract NHS staff to them, by producing key worker housing in and around NHS campuses and facilities, encouraging commerce, designing and creating a vibrant and attractive community.
