Trust news

A huge congratulations to our facilities management teams for achieving higher than the national average scores for the 2024 Patient Led Assessments of the Care Environment (PLACE) across a range of non-clinical services contributing to the healthcare environment.

Due to a series of technical issues causing suboptimal turnaround times and underperformance of our double stranded DNA antibody test (anti-dsDNA), we have made the decision to expedite a transition of the test to a new method.

Data captured between 6 to 12 March highlights how some of our Trust services are helping to alleviate ongoing system pressures. Performance data for this period covers urgent treatment and walk-in centres, Core 24, mental health and Longmoor House.

To ensure all pay related forms and expenses are submitted on time for processing, as well as all rosters finalised for payroll the below timetable needs to be adhered to. We need the dates adhering to ensure all colleagues are paid correctly and on time.

A message from Rosie Cooper, Chair and Trish Bennett, Chief Executive Officer
