Our mission

Together we are making life better for our communities

 

Empowerment

Having the opportunity to make choices, take the initiative and make decisions was also important to you. Not only to feel empowered to transform services, drive improvement but also empowered to improve care and wellbeing, this was also true of our service users and patients and the importance of being able to self-manage their own health and care. We have captured this in our value: ‘Empowering people to improve care and wellbeing’

Partnership

We all recognise the importance of partnership working and your feedback clearly supports this. ‘Delivering better health, better care in partnership’ sets out our ambition to build relationships for the future that will improve services, improve access to services, deliver better care co-ordination, reduce duplication and ensure that quality health care is maintained.

Our Mission

We have taken on board your feedback and listened to your views. It was quite clear that you didn’t want an ‘unachievable’ vision statement at the centre but rather a mission statement that ‘focusses on today and what we do’ not on ‘tomorrow and what we want to become’. You also wanted this to be very much focussed around the service user. We believe our mission statement reflects this: ‘Together we are making life better for our communities’.
