Bring Care Homes into the NHS, funded from taxation

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Care Homes are providing a care service to our aging population, many giving clinical care, and should be integrated within the NHS.
The Covid 19 epidemic within Care Homes has demonstrated that the current Care Home system, separate from the NHS, with poorly paid staff and exposed residents does not work.
