Health hub services showcase for NHS England
We were pleased to welcome Usman Khan, Regional Director of Improvement, Transformation and Partnerships for the NHS in London, and Shaaz Mahboob, Head of Digital Development at NHS England (London), to Queen Mary's Hospital.
Our visitors spent time taking a closer look at the many services and meeting some of the wealth of health providers working from our community health hub in Sidcup.
We also shared updates on digital transformation plans and showcased the breadth of physical and mental health services offered by Oxleas and how we’re taking forward the 10 Year Health Plan.
Usman Khan said:
Drawing upon the strong and established values of Oxleas we were able to see how Queen Mary’s Hospital is being made as patient and community focussed as possible, supported by a clear vision for delivery of the Government’s three left shift 10 Year Plan agenda.
It was a very successful visit to see the many services and providers hosted by Oxleas on the site - many thanks to Chair Andrew George, CEO Dr Ify Okocha and General Manager Holly Jessop and her colleagues for making us so welcome.
