The NHS Confederation has issued a warning about the impact of continuing pressures on the NHS.
Chief executive Mike Farrar said a survey of NHS chief executives and chairs reveal a mixture of challenges continuing to face the NHS, painting "some very worrying pictures".
Serious concerns about the impact of financial pressures, not enough progress on integrated care and increasing demand for services are among the issues identified in the latest annual survey of NHS Confederation members.
