Portfolio effectiveness is assessed by considering overall viability consisting of three interrelated elements--clinical, market and financial viability.

It is not a process that can be avoided, whoever does it. New Labour needs effective managers in the NHS if they are to bring about the changes they want to see. Manager bashing, which New Labour is showing signs of continuing, is counter productive and encourages a climate of threat for managers which subsequently translates into bad management practice with its inevitable consequences for service quality and productivity. The NHS badly needs a positive long-term strategy of serious investment in individual and organizational development. It is a question of balanced investment between the long-term management capability of the NHS and immediate patient care. The major issues of rationing, priorities and the balance between health and health services will always be part of the difficult national and local management task.

Explains that although there was an increase in the number of qualified nurses working in the NHS throughout the 1980s (over a ten-year period the number of qualified nurses increased by 22 per cent), the increase in qualified nursing staff has not compensated for the loss of student learners in the workforce.
