New Hospitals Programme update

Our new Values and Behaviours Framework

We recently asked for everyone's input into the Behavioural Standards Framework (BSF) review, which we said we would undertake following our Moving Forward conversations. Thank you to everybody who took part in the Microsoft Teams sessions or came to talk face to face – we really appreciate your input. 

Staff Survey is here and it’s confidential! 

Colleagues often ask whether the National Staff Survey is confidential. The answer is yes — nobody from where you work will see your completed survey or be able to identify individual responses. Please do fill yours in and make sure you have your say. As the People Promise says: ‘We each have a voice that counts’.
