WELCOME TO THE ACADEMY

Community-based research, innovation and improvement

Our aim is to support and equip our community and colleagues with the skills and confidence to identify areas of our healthcare services that could be improved, and give them the tools to make positive change.

 

Most importantly, we strive to make sure that the voice of our patients and community is at the heart of everything we do; shaping the changes and improvements we make.
