The NHS provides a comprehensive service, available to all. Irrespective of gender, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, religion, pregnancy, maternity, marital or civil partnership status, the NHS is available for everyone - no one should be unable to access the service, or feel that they will be discriminated against. On top of this, the NHS feels that it has a wider social duty to promote equality through the services it provides, and to pay particular attention to groups or areas of society in which health and life expectancy aren't aligned with the expectations of the rest of the country.
The NHS aspires to the highest standards of excellence and professionalism. Throughout the NHS - from the people it employs to the support, education, training, and development it provides - all strive to maintain impeccably high standards. This is the same for those in leadership and management positions, to those beginning their journey with the NHS. This dedication to excellence is seen through its commitment to innovation and in the promotion, conduct, and use of research, to improve the current and future health and care of the population.
Access to NHS services is based on clinical need; not an individual's ability to pay. With the exception of some specific services, NHS services are free of charge, and no one should experience financial hardship due to requiring care provided by the NHS.
The NHS works across organisational boundaries The NHS will work in partnership with other organisations, such as care providers, charities, local authorities, and more, to work in the best interests of patients, local communities, and the wider population.
The patient will be at the heart of everything the NHS does. Patients, with their families and carers, will (when appropriate) be involved in and consulted on all decisions about their care and treatment. Their situations will be explained to them clearly in a way that they understand, and the NHS will work with their interests at heart. The NHS will actively encourage feedback from the public, patients, and staff, will welcome it and use it to improve services.
The NHS is committed to providing the best value for taxpayers' money This means providing the most effective, fair, and sustainable use of finite resources, and devoting public funds for healthcare solely to the benefit of the people that the NHS serves.

The NHS is accountable to the public, communities, and patients that it serves. This means that most decisions in the NHS, especially those about the treatment of individuals and the detailed organisation of services, are rightly taken by the local NHS services, and by patients with their clinicians. The system of responsibility and accountability for taking decisions in the NHS should be transparent and clear to the public, patients, and staff. The government will ensure that there is always a clear and up-to-date statement of NHS accountability for this purpose.
