Prof Stephen Cushion stated that news reporting failing to differentiate between the UK's devolved governments neglects audiences' constitutional needs. He emphasized that issues like housing and healthcare are governed differently in Wales, which is often invisible in UK-wide news.

Aidan O'Brien faces a series of allegations including that he failed to provide good clinical care to 10 patients between 2011 and 2019.

The government has withdrawn an offer of creating 1,000 more doctor training posts in England after the British Medical Association (BMA) refused to call off a six-day strike next week. The extra posts were part of a wider package of measures put forward by ministers earlier this year to resolve the long-running dispute with resident doctors.

Fifty government-funded mobile mast upgrades have now been activated across Wales as part of the UK's Shared Rural Network (SRN) programme, marking a significant milestone in efforts to improve digital connectivity in some of the country's most remote communities. Across the UK, a total of 119 masts funded through the initiative are now live, helping to extend coverage to towns, villages, national parks and major road routes that previously experienced patchy service.

We coped, but only just. Collapse was only narrowly avoided thanks to the extraordinary efforts of all those working in health care. To cope with another pandemic there had to be greater capacity to scale-up hospital and ambulance services, according to the inquiry.

A child born this morning in Britain can expect to be in good health only until they are 61. The last 20 years of their life will be blighted by illness: dodgy hearts, painful joints, an inability to get about. Our healthy life expectancy has been dropping for years; it is now the lowest since 2011, when records began.

Thirty-six per cent of UK doctors and 24% of nurses and midwives were trained elsewhere in the world. The number of visas granted to healthcare professionals has fallen sharply in recent years. But overseas staff would be needed for the foreseeable future, the APPG said.

Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

Following an emotional debate, Wales' parliament gave its consent to Westminster legislation that would allow terminally ill people to obtain a medically assisted death. The landmark bill, which is currently in the House of Lords, would legalise the practice across England and Wales if passed. The vote in Cardiff Bay was needed because the backbench law gives powers to the Welsh government to set rules for assisted dying services if it wishes to.

NHS Surrey Heartlands said the situation at three hospital trusts Royal Surrey NHS foundation trust, Epsom and St Helier university hospitals NHS trust and Surrey and Sussex healthcare NHS trust was exacerbated by increases in flu and norovirus cases and an increase in staff sickness. It added that the recent cold weather front has also impacted on more frail patients needing to be admitted to hospital.

Born and raised in Texas, Dr Crowder left the state to attend Howard University. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in 1982 and her Doctor of Medicine degree in 1986 from Howard University College of Medicine. She returned to Texas to begin practising and later became board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in 1994.

While noting women 'were treated with kindness and compassion', a 'requires improvement' rating was given. Inspectors said hospital management 'did not always support staff well-being' and 'were not always visible within the service and were sometimes perceived as unsupportive'. Staff reported they were confident to report incidents, however, were not always assured action would be taken.

There is much more to do. We've got to pick up the pace...but the NHS is on the road to recovery.

Reducing those kinds of barriers to me is creating longevity of life for our residents, she said. A lot of times what happens is they don't get the services that they need, and as a result their life changes.
