It depends on whether you're referring to IBI - council tax, or IRNR - non-resident tax:

Can I check, once I become resident, do I lose my British residency? Someone has told me I'd have to pay for NHS treatment in the UK if I move to Spain as a resident.

You can only be resident in one country. As NHS treatment is residency based then you'd lose the right to that.
In our case we have UK issued EHICEs which cover us for emergency treatment when visiting the UK.
In your case, working here and paying into social security, you'd be entitled to a Tarjeta Sanitaria Europea (TSE), which would cover you for emergency treatment in the UK.

I see! Thanks for that information. Do you know if that is still to stay once Brexit is truly done and dusted? I have a lot of family in the UK and would like to think myself and my son would be able to recieve emergency care if necessary once Brexit is all over.
With regards to what else you said, I've understood that I'd still keep my British passport but have a special page included stating I'm resident in Spain, is that right? I always imagined I'd recieve a Spanish passport and also be able to maintain my British one?

GOV.UK have said recently that expats will still get necessary treatment in the UK.
Your passport will stay as is.
Prior to the end of this year you'd get a residency certificate, and after that you'd get a residencia card.
Please read what's already on the forum. I've said elsewhere that I don't have time to answer questions for which answers already exist.
