The strategy, developed with input from patients, carers, families, colleagues, and partner organisations, outlines the Trust's priorities for the next five years. It responds to local needs and government directives, focusing on delivering care shaped around individual needs, simpler and more integrated services, and a stronger emphasis on tackling health and care inequalities.
Central to the plan is a commitment to compassionate, research-informed care, alongside supporting staff development and well-being. The Trust aims to be ambitious in its role within the community, improving both the experience and outcomes of care provided.
“"I am very pleased that one of my first actions as CEO is to launch a strategy which seeks to make a clear difference to people’s quality of life. I want us to be ambitious about the role we can play in our communities and for people who access our services to improve the experience of the care we provide and outcomes for all. This strategy gives us a clear direction for doing this together."
Oxford Health acknowledges that delivering this strategy requires collaboration. The Trust plans to work closely with patients, families, carers, local communities, and partners to translate its priorities into tangible improvements for those they serve.
