• Stakeholder involvement - reference groups, collating evidence
informing design and delivery.

EDS – Where Did We Start?
• Listened to our staff and patients through:
– Investors in People Award
– Staff Survey Results
– Patient Survey
• Evolving process: building on successes
and lessons learnt
Equality Delivery System
In 2012, the external review of the Trust’s
performance against each of the 18 EDS
outcomes resulted in:
•
2 x amber (developing)
• 10 x green (achieving)
• 6 x purple (excelling)
4 Objectives
Better health outcomes for all
Objective: To review the patient data collected and
work towards capturing information that reflects the 9
characteristics to ensure that all patients are treated
with dignity and respect
Progress: Capability of information systems to capture
data for all 9 protected characteristics reviewed. Do not
have the facility. Will be included in Electronic Patient
Record development project.
Improved patient access and experience
Objective: Specific focus on dementia patients and the
need to work across health and social care, engaging
consultant geriatricians with this cohort of patients to
ensure their healthcare services are not marginalised
Progress: Dementia Screening of patients aged 75 and
over introduced. Key nurses trained to train others in
dementia awareness. Training being rolled-out across
the Trust
4 Objectives (cont)
Empowered, engaged and inclusive staff
Objective: Equality and Diversity training programmes
are developed over the next year, with Equality and
Diversity training becoming mandatory from 1st April
2013
Progress: E&D training events have been
commissioned from March 2013 to include bespoke
programmes for managers, all staff and the Staff-Side.
In addition, a ‘train the trainer’ event will create a cohort
of staff trainers to deliver future mandatory sessions
Inclusive leadership
Objective: The Board of Directors demonstrate their
commitment to E&D by signing up to become
Personal, Fair and Diverse Champions
Progress: All Non-Executive and Executive Directors
have signed-up as PFD champions, including new
appointees to the Board, who were invited to sign as
soon as they took up their roles
Key Messages
• Incremental development but sustainable = equality and diversity
issues embedded into organisation;
• Owned by the hospital and supported by the Board of Directors and
Board of Governors;
• Partnership Working with Stakeholders is paramount to success
• Allocate Funding, Time and Resources
“Everyone is equal but sometimes
you have to treat them differently”
“I am willing to make the mistakes if someone
else is willing to learn from them”
