Introduction
Demographic and epidemiological trends have put more pressure in the UK healthcare
service. An increase of aging population and migration will cost the NHS more to treat extra
people. Life expectancy and mobility has increase in England and there has been fall in
mortality. People are living longer with long term conditions such as, cardio vascular cancers
and mental illness. The increase of South Asian migration in UK has brought more complex
diseases in England such as diabetes. The NHS is no longer sustainable the way they are
delivering the service, a need for change is compulsory. Various change models are used to
drive change in an organisation, the most widely used in the health care system is the Lewin`s
change model. The government has encourage social enterprise to drive change in the NHS
An enterprise culture can save the NHS for further deficit and thus keep on successful ongoing change by reducing financial constraints.
which they work. The social enterprise investment fund was introduce to support existing
social to enterprise into extend delivery of health care. There are around 62,000 social
enterprise in UK which contribute 24 bn to the economy of the health and social care
( hsj.co.uk, 2014 , Running community hospital as social enterprise, ). The NHS chief
executive Simon Stevens, talk about changing Community Hospitals and he said what if
staff in your community hospital were not employ by the NHS but by the social enterprise .
The managing Director of Spiral Health, Tracey Bush, argues , give social enterprise a
greater role in the provision of health care and support staffs to save the NHS money and
bypass the law that hold back innovation. The Spiral health has a good relationship with the
GP and community team which benefit the patient from merging of health and social care. By
getting patient home quicker than acute ward, the organisation saves the NHS up to 2.7 m
per year and any money save are reinvested for better delivery service. Large private firm like
Hirmoni and Serco are preparing to bid to get contract and a coalition of 10 Gp out of hours
social enterprise in the North West, have join forces with the NHS. Dr Jenner ( member from
the NHS Alliance) stated partnering with a private firm make sense and long term contract
must be provided to help mitigate huge risks social enterprises face when they started.
Commissioners are more keen to see providers have more money available to redesign the
service and provide a high quality of care.
2.2 critically assess the key impact of demographic trends and the changes
in the epidemiological environment on the health and social care.
The two demographic changes which will affect the health in UK are the ageing population
and greater mobility of people. Globalisation will continue have complex effects on UK and

A leader should consider these sources of power and integrate them appropriately and use the
best source of power to achieve success and effectiveness. Without a source of power there
would be no leadership. (plaintsevices.com, 2011, Human Capital, & sources of leadership).
3.3 Examine the value of conflicts arise in joint and collaborative working
and how they may be overcome.
To make joint and collaborative work effectively is one of the toughest challenges facing the
public sectors managers. (Audit commission 1998 p .5). Because joint working involved
distinct permitted services, each constrained by their own policies, code of practice and
financial limitation. Despite lots of beneficial support of joint working, there have been
conflicts across all clients group. (communitycare.co.uk, 2013, Join working). Some
examples are delayed in discharges mainly of older people where there is unavailability of
health and social care services in the community, or administrative problems in the hospital.
Continuous cut in the NHS the healthcare has led dispute between NHS and social care
professionals and reduce cost to the councils. Tom Gentry, the charity policy adviser said the
cut is going to affect individuals in many ways. Some areas in England councils have
remove social care staff from mental health team, which are run by mental health trusts
because of cost pressure. A five million healths and social care partnership collapsed in
Glasgow in May 2010, following a dispute between the local NHS board and the council over
their future direction. The Greater Glasgow and Clyde decided to stop the community health
and care partnership (CHCPs) and replacing them with arrangement covering healthcare
alone. The council came with a series of incremental measures to devolve responsibilities to
CHCPs; however the NHS said they would not offer a viable way forward. Other conflicts
in good partnership working include, health and social care agencies facing different
performances regime and using different IT systems. Health and social care staff being in
different conditions and terms in integrated teams. Under section 75 of the NHS Act 2006,
local authorities and NHS bodies in England can pool budgets, join together staff and
management structures and delegate commissioning responsibilities to each other. The NHS
must provide more fund to make availability of communities services for elderly people and
fund the councils as well give them power to control their own budget. (NHS ACT 2006 ,
s75).
survey among 3, 628 health staff, only 5% thinks the reform has a positive impact. David
Bowers, senior research manager said the Health and social care act 2012 shows a clear
tension with the health service surrounding the need to make more efficiency. He added
money will remain tight for the future. Allowing social enterprise working in the NHS has
been also a disadvantage by public mistrust of private companies. (theguardian.com,2011,
NHS social enterprise, face a stiff challenge ). Companies who focus only on profit have
made it harder for Social Enterprise). Chief executive of Social Enterprise in London
,Allison Ogden-Newton said we dont want to be associate ourselves from stack high , sell
it cheap and if you ask most people if they wanted their hospital to be manage by Serco ,
they would say NO . (issu.com, ISSU- Financial time, 2014).

Recommendation
Due to financial constraints and changes in the demographic and epidemiological trends, it is
important for the government to continue to support social enterprise and invest more fund
and places for staff can deliver care with an enterprise culture which will benefit both the
NHS and the population. Leaders should themselves be as model and motivate them first and
drives change throughout the organisation.
Conclusion
Growth of population and change in the epidemiological trends in UK has put huge pressure
in the NHS. The government announced the right to request in 2011 to give staff rights to
directly manage the service through social enterprise. With the knowledge, skills and new
innovation by staff they will apply an enterprise culture which will drive change in the
service. Leaders must use appropriate change models and have a clear vision how to
11
successfully drive change in the organisation despite the constraints which the healthcare
service if facing.
