Chapter four: Summary and next steps
This refreshed strategy represents a new way of working for Solent NHS Trust,“beyond the pandemic”. It outlines the commitments we have made to improve health, reduce health inequalities, improve experience of care, support our communities to manage and recover from the impact of COVID-19, and build a fairer future.
Each year we will create a strategic delivery plan setting out the actions we will take to progress each of our strategic priorities and we will monitor the plan and assess the impact of the changes we make, to ensure we are making meaningful progress towards achievement of our vision. Our priorities will be embedded in annual business plans, as well as team and personal objectives.
Our Trust Board will monitor progress against our plans and ensure work is prioritised and resourced appropriately, to maintain momentum.
This strategy has been created to reflect the things our people, our communities and our partners have told us are important. We will enable staff, service users, communities and partners to actively participate in activities and key decision making to help us deliver and monitor progress, and ensure we are held to account against the commitments we have made.
The next few years will be a time of significant change for the health and care system. The priorities we have set will need to adapt over time, in response to the changing environment and emerging strategy across the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care System (ICS). We will regularly review and refresh our strategy and plans to ensure we can respond to new challenges and opportunities, and make the biggest difference to our local communities.
Each year we will create a strategic delivery plan setting out the actions we will take to progress each of our strategic priorities and we will monitor the plan and assess the impact of the changes we make.
