RAPID C-19 has enabled active multi-agency oversight of national and international trial evidence for COVID-19 therapies for potential treatment and prophylactic indications. To date, evidence has strongly supported treatment use, although emerging evidence on prophylactic use is continuing to be reviewed.<\/p>

We are monitoring a range of treatment products through the Protect-V study, including sotrovimab and niclosamide, as administered over a six-month period in vulnerable renal and immunosuppressed patients, to assess their effectiveness and suitability.

Under the Care Act 2014, local authorities have a duty to manage local care markets. The vast majority of care workers are employed by private sector providers which set their terms and conditions, including renumeration for travel costs, independently of Government. Local authorities work with care providers to determine fee rates, which should take account of employment costs, based on local market conditions.<\/p>

We are committing £1.36 billion to the Market Sustainability and Fair Cost of Care Fund. The Fund will support local authorities to prepare markets for reform and move towards paying providers a fair cost of care. The Government continues to work with local government and care providers to understand the impact from challenges such as energy price rises and inflationary pressures.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4679", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Neil O'Brien"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Harborough"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Neil O'Brien"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-09-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1504900/answer/previousversion/17725", "answeringMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4098", "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Suffolk Coastal"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Dr Thérèse Coffey"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-09-20T14:35:49.907Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2022-09-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Care Workers: Allowances"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will offer support to local authorities to help social care providers to increase the mileage allowance paid to care workers.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4811", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Navendu Mishra"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stockport"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Navendu Mishra"} ], "uin" : "47691"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1504906", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1504906/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

As part of this years\u2019 World Sickle Cell Day, NHS England launched a new sickle cell disease awareness campaign on the signs and symptoms of sickle cell disease, aimed at urgent and emergency care staff and those living with the condition and their carers.<\/p>

There have been recent improvements to the haematology medical curriculum, with understanding sickle cell disease and thalassemia now described in the curriculum as core competencies. Health Education England (HEE) provides e-learning which includes content on sickle cell disease. HEE has held discussions with the Royal Colleges of Pathology and Physicians to ensure this curriculum is deliverable to all four nations, in line with General Medical Council\u2019s (GMC) standards. The Haemoglobinopathy Coordinating Centres also provide network development, leadership, learning and education.<\/p>

The Sickle Cell Society and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia report \u2018No One\u2019s Listening\u2019 highlighted the lack of awareness of sickle cell disease among healthcare professionals. Officials are considering the report\u2019s recommendations. NHS England estimates that awareness amongst accident and emergency medical and nursing staff, specifically of conditions such as sickle cell disease, is high across England and in areas where there is a higher prevalence of the condition. However, NHS England and other bodies continue with further awareness raising.<\/p>

No specific assessment has been made regarding the extent of compliance to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence\u2019s (NICE) guidance on pain relief for sickle cell patients.

As part of this years\u2019 World Sickle Cell Day, NHS England launched a new sickle cell disease awareness campaign on the signs and symptoms of sickle cell disease, aimed at urgent and emergency care staff and those living with the condition and their carers.<\/p>

There have been recent improvements to the haematology medical curriculum, with understanding sickle cell disease and thalassemia now described in the curriculum as core competencies. Health Education England (HEE) provides e-learning which includes content on sickle cell disease. HEE has held discussions with the Royal Colleges of Pathology and Physicians to ensure this curriculum is deliverable to all four nations, in line with General Medical Council\u2019s (GMC) standards. The Haemoglobinopathy Coordinating Centres also provide network development, leadership, learning and education.<\/p>

The Sickle Cell Society and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia report \u2018No One\u2019s Listening\u2019 highlighted the lack of awareness of sickle cell disease among healthcare professionals. Officials are considering the report\u2019s recommendations. NHS England estimates that awareness amongst accident and emergency medical and nursing staff, specifically of conditions such as sickle cell disease, is high across England and in areas where there is a higher prevalence of the condition. However, NHS England and other bodies continue with further awareness raising.<\/p>
