Performance
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 further information about
how we measure ourselves, please contact our Publication Scheme
Co-ordinator.
