On Wednesday 28 September we held a Members’ Event and our formal Annual Members’ Meeting (AMM).
This was a momentous occasion for us in many ways – it was our first face-to-face members event since 2019 and our first attempt at doing it in a hybrid way (simultaneously face-to-face and online). It was also our first formal AMM as the Royal Devon (following the integration of Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust and the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust in April 2022).
It was fantastic to see members, whether in the room or on the screen, and have the opportunity to talk with you about some of our latest and biggest developments.
If you weren’t able to attend and would like to catch up, you can use the links below.
In our first member session, we heard from Professor Adrian Harris, Chief Medical Officer, Dr Chris Mulgrew, Consultant Nephrologist and Chief Clinical Information Officer for our Eastern services, and Phil Luke, Director of Service Improvement. They spoke to members about how we are improving and transforming care with our electronic patient record system. You can catch up through the links below.
We then spoke to members about the changing public perception of the NHS and what it means for us. We had some really good conversations. Understanding your views is really important as it helps us make the best decisions for our local communities. You can read a summary of what we heard by clicking the link below. These themes have been shared with our Board of Directors and with our Governors.
