It will build on the progress made in delivering the vision set out in the NHS plan and the Government's reform agenda, to identify the way forward for a 21st Century NHS which is clinically-driven, patient-centred and responsive to local communities. 2. The review should engage with patients, NHS staff and the public on four critical challenges: Working with NHS staff to ensure that clinical decision-making is at the heart of the future of the NHS and the pattern of service delivery Improving patient care, including high-quality, joined-up services for those suffering long-term or life-threatening conditions, and ensuring patients are treated with dignity in safe, clean environments Delivering more accessible and more convenient care integrated across primary and secondary providers, reflecting best value for money and offering services in the most appropriate settings for patients In time for the 60th anniversary of the NHS, establishing a vision for the next decade of the health service which is based less on central direction and more on patient control, choice and local accountability and which ensures services are responsive to patients and local communities 3. The review should consider the case for a constitution of the NHS as the basis of a sustainable and lasting settlement that meets these challenges, enhances local accountability, secures value for money and protects the fundamental values that the NHS has always embodied. 4. The review should help support local patients, staff and the public in making the changes they need and want in their local NHS and make recommendations to the Prime Minister, Secretary of State for Health and Chancellor on how the NHS can best meet these challenges whilst delivering a publicly funded, comprehensive, affordable, high-quality service on the basis of need and not ability to pay. It will report by June 2008 with an interim report in October 2007. Patient and public engagement Two deliberative events for patients, public and staff are to be held in each SHA, the first on 18 September 2007 and the second some time in December 2007. These events will provide a forum for discussion on the national themes at a local level, as well providing some patient input into the work of the clinical pathway groups. Staff engagement The Department of Health has developed an interactive multimedia tool which will seek the views of staff on the review; SHAs have been asked to disseminate this widely. The tool, in the form of an online film and questionnaire, can be found at the following website address:  HYPERLINK "http://www.ournhs.nhs.uk/2007/09/our-nhs-our-fut.html" www.ournhs.nhs.uk/2007/09/our-nhs-our-fut.html   5785 8 ,-5F^_rzqmhg~hhG 0JjhG U h6hG jhG UhChG >* h5ohG hG !hmhG B*CJ^JaJphho=3hG >*hmB*CJ^JaJph!hm}hG B*CJ^JaJph$hm}hG 5B*CJ^JaJphh=hG 5 h05 55 $ 45$$$d 7$8$H$a$gdG $d 7$8$H$a$gdm 7$8$H$gdm V7$8$H$^Vgdm V7$8$H$^VgdG $$ & F7$8$H$gdG $$V7$8$H$^VgdG $$$7$8$H$a$gdG 5F^$$$d 7$8$H$a$gdG $d 7$8$H$a$gdm21h:pm.
