Quality account 2023/24

Date: June 2024

Summary

Organisations are required under the Health and Social Care Act 2012 to produce an annual quality account if they deliver services under an NHS Standard Contract, have staff numbers over 50 and NHS income greater than £130k per annum. The information included is required by law to provide so that people can see how the quality of our services compares to those of other NHS trusts. We have also included some areas of positive quality, safety and governance undertaken during the year.

The quality account is an important and positive way to reflect on the services we have provided in the previous year, and to outline our plans to improve the quality of our services in the year ahead. This report will outline our highlights and challenges of the year, and where we have put actions in place to improve the care we provide.
