<p>The National Implementation Framework, to be published in the spring, will provide
further information on how the NHS Long Term Plan will be delivered. As local areas
begin to develop their implementation plans staff, patients, the public and other
stakeholders will have the opportunity to help local organisations determine what
the NHS Long Term Plan means for their area, and how services need to adapt and improve
in the short and medium term.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England is asking local health systems
to start this engagement soon and expect local politicians to have an opportunity
to be involved in this, as well as other local stakeholders, local partners, communities,
service users and patients.</p><p> </p><p>Nationally, the National Health Service
is working with Healthwatch England and the Voluntary and Community Sector Health
and Wellbeing Alliance to provide additional support to local systems in their engagement
with local communities.</p>
