The Trust produces a Performance Report for each Trust Board meeting.
This will summarise the current performance of the Trust in a
number of key performance areas, including finance and performance
against the key NHS Plan and National Service Framework targets.
In the meantime, if you require any information about how we measure
ourselves, please contact our Publication Scheme Co-ordinator.
We are monitored and scrutinised by a number of external bodies
in regard to our performance in a variety of areas. These areas
may relate to specific service areas, professional conduct, and
adverse events or to the overall management of the Trust.

with these organisations will not be in the public domain.
Some information that is of a personal and confidential nature
