What is a Member?
A Member can be anyone in our community, including patients and staff, that takes an active interest in their local hospitals and would like to have a say in how their health services are run.
We use the views of our members to shape our services to best serve the people in our community.
Our Council of Governors voice the feedback from our members to the Group Board of Directors, to influence decision making and the Group's future plans.
