There are increasing concerns about health-care staff leaving the National Health Service (NHS) workforce, and the substantial adverse knock-on effects that attrition has for patient care, which the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have exacerbated. In July, 2022, a report by the UK Health and Social Care Committee stated that “The NHS and the social care sector are facing the greatest workforce crisis in their history”,1 with estimated shortages of 12 000 hospital doctors and more than 50 000 nurses and midwives,1 while demand for services increases and waiting lists grow.
