Guidance, publications and resources
The following guidance, publications and resources will assist Allied Health Professionals in implementing our ‘AHPs into Action’ strategy, led by the AHP leadership team across the three arm’s length bodies of NHS England and NHS improvement, Public Health England and Health Education England. The strategy supports and inspires Allied Health Professionals to lead local action to improve both services for patients and their experiences and continuing development as crucial health care professionals as part of the wider NHS workforce.
