We have six Trust-wide goals, each with headline objectives and deliverables to measure progress, and nominated executive sponsors and to help us achieve these, our executives have four overarching priorities.

• Deliver high-quality, patient centred care
• Create a diverse and inclusive workplace
• Maximise capacity utilisation and improve performance
• Make better use of resource to get financially fit
• Be a good partner and proactive contributor in our local economy
• Address the inequalities experienced by staff and patients

This year, our executives have four overarching priorities:

• Cut waiting times for patients for A&E, cancer treatment and hospital appointments
• Make this a better place to work, as shown by better NHS staff survey results
• Don't waste money! Keep to headcount, cut agency and carry out fewer unnecessary tests
• Get ready for the Electronic Patient Record
