Our strategy

We are delighted to present the strategy that sets out how we will deliver high quality care for the people of Mid and South Essex over the next ten years.

We are one of the largest Trusts in the country and understand just how important healthcare is to every one of our residents.

This strategy is a hugely significant step

We have already realised some of the benefits of merging our three legacy organisations, and now we are setting out how we will continue that journey as one team.

Four illustrations of our four priorates in a square linking togetherEverything that we do will fall within our four priorities:

  • Our people excel
  • Our communities thrive
  • Our services are high performing and sustainable
  • Our partnerships deliver benefits for our population.

We are committed to delivering sustainable services that give patients the best possible experience and outcomes, while ensuring we are spending taxpayers’ money responsibly now and for the future.

We would like to thank all of our staff, patients and healthcare partners who have worked with us to develop this strategy, and are particularly grateful to our people across our hospitals who will deliver it. We are one team working together for excellent patient care.
