NHS Orkney Annual Review 2024
NHS Orkney’s 2023/24 Annual Review – reconnecting with our community
Members of the public are invited to NHS Orkney’s Annual Review on Tuesday 3 December 12pm – 2pm, to hear about a range of developments underway to further improve care and services for our community and patients.
The meeting will include a summary of how we did in 2023/24 against our priorities and national standards and will showcase some of the improvements we have made.
The meeting will be led by our Board Chair, Meghan McEwen, and attended by the Board’s Chief Executive, Executive Team and wider Board members.
We will also set out our priorities for 2024/25 which have been agreed in response to local community and patient feedback, as well as wider regional and national priorities for the Health Board.
Meghan McEwen, NHS Orkney Board Chair said: “Our Annual Review is almost here once again and I’m excited to share with you all what we’ve achieved in the last year, our plans for the year to come and of course the challenges we continue to work through.
I hope you’ll be able to join us on Tuesday 3 December either in-person or virtually. If you can’t join us, please rest assured the event will be recorded and shared online thereafter. If you have a question you’d like to ask, please follow the details below on how to send your question to us.”
Laura Skaife-Knight, NHS Orkney Chief Executive, said: “Over the last year we have worked hard to reconnect in a meaningful way with our community and at the heart of this work has been a commitment to being consistently open and transparent.
We look forward to sharing and evidencing the progress we have made with our community and setting out our challenges and responses to these, based on what we know is most important to our community.
Our journey of continuous improvement is well underway, and we look forward to sharing this and our exciting vision for the future at this meeting, which everyone is encouraged to attend.”
