‘I have little contact with the chief executive or senior non-clinical managers so it is difficult to assess how valued I feel by them.’
‘ I am regularly having to cover gaps in the on-call rota meaning at times I am
covering the work of two medical registrars, which is soul destroying.’

INTEGRATION IN ACTION
“Dear MatthewI saw you on the news this morning and would like to thank you on behalf of all admin staff. I think in the 30 years working in this trust it is a first that admin staff have been openly thanked it is usually all set in stone that praise goes to medical staff.” Medical Staffing Administrator
LANGUAGE AND TONE
COMMUNICATE LIKE INSURGENTS
“To me, it’s more about having an overall framework to work in and allowing people on the ground to be flexible, creative and agile. What I took was that it was about being not hemmed in by procedure. It’s about creating sharable content that is going to be shared. It’s seeing what works in the field and replicating it.”
