Public lecture In association with the RSA HOSPITALS AND HOME: Good Healthcare in Herefordshire by Richard Humphries and Martin Samuels Taking place in the Events Suite at the Hereford Campus, Herefordshire & Ludlow College, Folly Lane, Hereford on Tuesday 23 January 2018 Arrivals from 4.15pm, for a 4.30pm start, and a 6.00pm close Hospitals and care services are rarely out of the national news. Our ageing population is a cause for celebration, but the way we fund and organise the essential care and treatment most of us will need in later life hasn’t kept pace with that population. Richard Humphries, RSA Fellow and Visiting Professor at the University of Worcester will outline the national politics and policy. Martin Samuels, Director for Adults & Well-being at Herefordshire Council will describe the challenges in Herefordshire. The focus will be on sharing and comparing ideas and practical, local solutions that could improve health and social care services for Herefordshire’s citizens.
