We are excited to have started the journey of developing our new long term corporate vision and strategy for the organisation.
Our aim is to collaborate with staff, service users, carers and all those with an interest in our services, to develop a strategy that meets the needs of our local population.
This year we celebrate 75 years of the NHS, a dynamic organisation continuing to develop in line with best practice and constantly striving for excellence. We have many staff successes and service innovations to be proud of right across the Southern Trust.
However, with ongoing workforce and financial pressures, unprecedented demand for health and social care and the challenge of rebuilding services as we emerge from the pandemic, the need for major transformation is as evident as ever.
We know that by working together and with support from all of our partners, we can build on and develop our successes to improve the lives of more local people into the future.
Engagement
From November 2023 we have engaged in a number of face to face and virtual sessions with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders including service user and carer forums, community and voluntary sector, elected representatives, community planning partnerships and a roadshow across five Trust venues.
We thank everyone who has took the time out to help us to understand the opportunities and challenges from a wide range of users, staff and partners and we appreciate all the involvement to date.
