The NHS in Kent and Medway is developing a strategy designed to support all NHS organisations to work together as one – to provide the best possible health outcomes for our communities now and in the future.
The emerging strategy recognises no one NHS partner can achieve the change needed on its own, that together we are stronger and can tackle issues happening at scale. It’s why NHS Kent and Medway and provider trusts are co-designing the strategy.
It will set the direction for health services for the next three to five years.
Those leading the work are:
Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust
East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust
Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust
Kent and Medway Social Care Partnership Trust
Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust
Medway NHS Foundation Trust
NHS Kent and Medway
primary care
We know there are variations in access, experience and outcomes for patients across Kent and Medway and there are inequalities that could be improved through more sustainable services that are co-designed with our population and in the right place.
A shared understanding of challenges we are collectively facing and a statement setting out our shared ambition for the NHS in five years sets the context and direction for our strategy.
Within the strategy, there are likely to be four key themes that:
improve the quality of care and patients’ experience
support the skills, diversity and wellbeing of people working in the NHS
enable us to modernise care to better meet the needs of our population
allow us to work within one budget.
The strategy’s likely shared ambition will be: Responsive, sustainable healthcare with equity of access and improved patient outcomes for everyone in Kent and Medway.
We ran a survey between Friday 3 May and Friday 28 June 2024. Thank you for all of your responses.
