Public workshops on healthcare review

Residents are being invited to learn more about the current review into the Island's healthcare system.

The evaluation is being run by Sir Jonathan Michael - a former chief executive of three NHS trusts in the UK - the move to have the review was made in Tynwald in January last year in response to the Department of Health and Social Care repeatedly going over its budget.

Another series of workshops are being held this month and in early February with people being invited to give their views and ideas for the future of healthcare on the Isle of Man.

The final report and recommendations are due to go before Tynwald in May.

Details of when and where the workshops will take place are below.
