A new major survey has revealed that public satisifaction with NHS care has reached its lowest level for 40 years.

Public satisfaction with the NHS has dropped to its lowest ever level, according to a major new survey.

The new figures are the lowest ever recorded since the survey first began in 1983, and a major drop since 2010 when 70% said they were satisfied with the NHS.Data from the poll of 3,362 people from England, Wales and Scotland, analysed by the Nuffield Trust and The King’s Fund think tanks, also show that overall dissatisfaction with the way the NHS is run increased to 51% – also at the highest levels since the survey began.

Meanwhile, a smaller survey of 1,187 people found that satisfaction with different NHS services is at record lows. Yet despite this, the authors said that public commitment to the principles of the NHS is ‘undimmed’ with the majority of people agreeing that the service should be free at the point of use; available to everyone; and that it should be primarily funded through taxes.
