CETAD in partnership with Blackpool Teaching Hospitals

Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust recently welcomed Prime Minister David Cameron on the day the Prime Minister announced a package of measures to improve standards of care in hospitals.

One of the measures announced was about leadership on wards. Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has over the last year been investing in the role of the Ward Manager. The Trust commissioned a development programme to empower their Ward Managers in the changing NHS landscape.
