NHS 60th anniversary

The National Health Service (NHS) was founded in the summer of 1948, with the philosophy that good healthcare should be available to all, regardless of wealth. For the first time hospitals, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, opticians and dentists were brought together under one organisation. The NHS celebrates its 60th anniversary on 5 July. To see how the role of pharmacy has changed over the past 60 years and how it continues to evolve and grow, view the web video produced by the RPSGB:
