Our vision is to provide outstanding care for every patient. This means not only the patients we see today, but the ones who will need us tomorrow, next month and in years to come. It also means making sure that patients are well cared for across the boundaries between our organisation and other providers.
Our Strategy
To provide outstanding care, we need to ensure that we focus on the care that we provide and the staff who care for our patients. We need to be responsible stewards of our financial resources, ensuring that we do not spend too much in one area. We need to be innovative, embracing new ideas and we need to work with our partners; we can only do so much on our own.
Priority areas
Each year, we create a delivery plan setting out the actions we will take to progress our strategic themes. For 2024/25, we have 11 priority areas under the five strategic themes. Below you can see the priority areas which sit under each theme:
