North Bristol NHS Trust Strategy

A triangle-shaped graphic with four tiers. From the top it reads "Our aim: Outstanding patient experience. Trust objectives: Deliver great care, healthcare for the future and anchor in the community. Improvement Priorities: High quality care - better by design, innovate to improve - unlocking a better future, sustainability - making best use of our limited resources, people - proud to belong, commitment to our community - in and for our community. NBT values: caring, ambitious, respectful and supportive."

Our reason for existing as an organisation is to put the patient first by delivering outstanding patient experience– and that’s the focal point of our strategy, Our Aim.

Through our NBT Cares ‘Values and Positive Behaviours’ we are committed to being:

We will continue to maintain overall focus on our three Trust objectives:

To support us to achieve our three Trust Objectives, we have new Improvement Priorities, which have the potential to transform what we do as a Trust on behalf of our patients.

Our Improvement Priorities which will help us to deliver our ultimate aim of delivering outstanding patient experience are:

  1. high quality care – we’ll make our care better by design.
  2. innovate to improve – we’ll unlock a better future.
  3. people – our people will be proud to belong here.
  4. sustainability – we’ll make best use of limited resources.
  5. commitment to our community – we’ll be in our community, for our community.
