NHS 75th Birthday: Honouring the Legacy of Universal Healthcare in the UK (English Edition)

As the National Health Service (NHS) celebrates its 75th anniversary, we pay tribute to the beloved institution that has been a cornerstone of British society since its founding in 1948. The NHS has been a beacon of hope and a symbol of compassion. The NHS is often described as "the Envy of the World" because of its universal healthcare system, providing free healthcare to all citizens and residents of the United Kingdom.

In this tribute book we honour the legacy of this great institution, we embark together on a journey to uncover the motivations behind the creation of the NHS, how the NHS evolved since inception in 1948, and the lofty principles and ideals upon which it was founded. We will also explore some of its notable accomplishments over the past 75 years. We will traverse the interesting history behind the introduction of prescription charges and its impact on society and the booming development and availability of drugs in the 1960s. We will also look at some of the drug scandals in the 1960s and how the government dealt with them. We will dive into how the NHS funding changed over the years.

We will examine together some of the much pressing challenges currently facing the NHS; like lack of sufficient funding, staff shortages, and embracing digitisation to name a few. We will look at the measures that the NHS is taking to tackle those challenges. Last but not least, we will find out about the countries that were inspired by the British NHS and how they were inspired by the British healthcare system.

By no means is this concise book meant to be a comprehensive research into the legacy of the NHS, it is but a short and sweet tribute, from the heart, to the inspiring institution that sits right at the heart of each and every Briton. Happy NHS 75th anniversary!
