Review the process of NHS continuing healthcare (CHC)

Closed 35 signatures

What the petition asks

I am calling for an urgent and comprehensive review of the NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) system. I believe that the Continuing Healthcare (CHC) process is flawed, inefficient, and can place an unnecessary burden on families.
I think healthcare professionals may lack understanding of the framework, resulting in inadequate support, which could lead to unjust decisions, with many eligible individuals not receiving the funding they deserve.
