We have been shortlisted for an award! :- Wednesday, November 12, 2008

We have been shortlisted for the Independent Project of the Year Award at the 1st Annual Lean Healthcare Academy Exhibition and Awards. The shortlisted entry is in recognition of the work done by the Transfer Team based at Tameside General Hospital. Their work in streamlining the way the service operates means that far more patients are seen prior to their discharge and receive the support they need. This reflects WCC in the way it brings about more effective and efficient ways of working.
