What is a strategy? What is in the HIOWH strategy 2025-30?
These are just two questions that HIOWH service users, community partners and staff members have chatted about in this roundtable* recording.
*For those not familiar with a roundtable, it is an event which sees a group of people from different perspectives and backgrounds discuss a particular topic.
At this roundtable was:
- Anne Cato – A community partner
- Andy Scorer – A carer
- Jon Prichard – Associate Director of Population and Health Equity
- Sarah Reed – Staff Governor and Communications Manager
- Mark Kelsey – Chief Medical Officer – Physical Health
- Anastasia Lungu-Mulenga – Head of Community Engagement and Experience
- Rachael Mejia – Director of Quality and Professions for Southampton and South West Hampshire division
Our aim of filming the roundtable in support the launch of the strategy was to give everyone an insight into how and why our five-year strategy was create along with what people’s hopes and ambitions are for it from their perspectives as a carer, a service user, a member of staff, a clinician and so on.
These roundtablers have been heavily involved in helping shaping the contents of the strategy and are proud and passionate champions of it. They are now not only helping roll out the strategy to make it meaningful at local levels to colleagues, patients and community members, but they are also importantly now starting to put the strategy into action to ensure it is as successful as we all in HIOWH want it to be for our communities and colleagues.
Our thanks go to the roundtable participants, and we hope that you enjoy watching. Please share onwards and let us know if you have any specific questions or comments about it. Email getintouch@hiowhealthcare.nhs.uk
