Cevap

The National Health Service (NHS) was established in 1948.
The year 1948 is correct because the National Health Service (NHS) was officially launched on July 5 of that year, fulfilling a key promise of Clement Attlee's post-war Labour government to provide healthcare free at the point of use for everyone.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the political context
The Labour Party under Clement Attlee won the 1945 election and committed to social reform.
Establishing the government responsible for the legislation is the first step in dating the reform.
2
Distinguish between the plan and the implementation
The Beveridge Report (1942) provided the blueprint, while the legislation was passed and implemented after the war.
Confusing the report date with the launch date is a common error.
3
Pinpoint the specific launch year of the NHS
The NHS was officially launched on July 5, 1948.
This is the factual date required by the Life in the UK curriculum.
