SLaM's 'changing lives' strategy aims to improve the lives of the people and communities they serve
As a large, diverse mental health trust providing local and national services, South Lambeth and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) aim to make a difference to lives by seeking excellence in all areas of mental health and wellbeing: prevention, care, recovery, education and research.
Their strategy is named 'Changing Lives' because everything they do is to help people improve their lives.
They know this is what matters to their service users, carers, families, local communities and passionate staff.
To achieve this SLaM are focused on the quality of their services, but they cannot do this alone.
They need to work in partnership with people and communities; make the trust a great place to work to attract and retain the very best people.
SLaM's Changing Lives strategy sets out five strategic aims to steer their work:
-
Quality: getting the basics right in every contact and keep improving what matters to service users
-
Partnership: working together with service users, their support networks and whole populations to realise their potential
- A great place to work: value, support and develop their managers and staff
- Innovation: we will strive to be at the forefront of what is possible, exploiting our unique strengths in research and development, with everyone involved and learning
- Value: we will make the best use of our assets, resources, relationships and reputation to support the best quality outcomes
