Top HSJ accolade for Chief Executive Ify
Congratulations to our own Dr Ify Okocha, who the Health Service Journal has ranked in the top 15 of their annual Top 50 Chief Executives for the second year running.
Now in its 12th year, these awards recognise England’s top leaders of NHS trusts.
The judging panel was asked to consider the performance on the chief executive over the last year, the performance on the organisation they lead and the wider contribution they have made nationally or locally, such as taking on additional roles such as chairing integrated care partnerships.
Oxleas Chair Andrew George said:
I am delighted that Ify Okocha has been named in the top 15 of NHS CEOs – a deserved tribute to his leadership at Oxleas and work to improve the care given to those we serve in Bromley, Bexley and Greenwich as well as in prisons across south England.
