Quality Accounts On 1st April 2012, NHS Isle of Wight became the Isle of Wight NHS Trust, therefore, the 2012 Quality Account details quality improvements that were made as a Primary Care Trust (Section 3) and sets the direction for improvements for the first year as an NHS Trust. As an integrated organisation we continue to: - Place great emphasis on integrated care delivery between physical and mental healthcare and between primary, community and acute care delivery;
- Focus on improving patient’s experiences of services as well as the outcome and safety of those services;
- Support people to take more responsibility for their health and healthcare and place greater emphasis on shared care;
- Increase availability of community based alternatives to hospital care, giving higher priority to keeping patients out of hospital;
- Increase the resources we deploy in community services relative to other sectors to enable an increasing focus in helping people to stay healthy;
- Deliver services as part of a strong clinical partnership with other provider organisations;
- Develop active case management;
- Focus on developing the role of clinicians as leaders – particularly by bringing improvements in quality, patient safety and delivering value as a means of improving all round performance;
- Use more technology, information and information systems to improve quality and productivity;
- Search harder for innovative solutions to deliver health care and seek to continuously improve;
