Healthcare review unanimously approved

A landmark review into the Islands healthcare system has been unanimously approved by Tynwald members.

The evaluation by Sir Jonathan Michael and its recommendations went before the court during its May sitting yesterday.

26 recommendations have been made in the document, with Sir Jonathan describing the current healthcare structure on Island as 'both clinically and financially unsustainable'.

Earlier this month, Health Minister, David Ashford MHK, called the report an 'outstanding contribution' to finding out where improvements are needed.
