\n\t\t\tA NEW chief executive is expected to appointed at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital (ROH) after their former chief has taken on a new role.
\nFormer chief executive, Jo Williams, has transitioned into leading Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust (ShropCom) and The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH).<\/p>\n
\nJo Williams said: \u201cI am honoured to be taking on this new role. I am proud of the improvements we have made so far and excited about what we will accomplish by working together and listening to our patients, families and colleagues.<\/p>\n
\u201cHaving managed both community and hospital services, I am passionate about bringing care closer to home, focusing on joined-up, personalised and compassionate care.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have amazing people in both trusts and I am looking forward to working with everyone to build a modern NHS where everyone has a voice and feels they belong.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
As Ms Williams transitions into her new role at ShropCom and SaTH, the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital (ROH) in Birmingham, where she previously served as Chief Executive, will begin the process of appointing a new substantive CEO.<\/p>\n
Matthew Hartland, who has served as Interim CEO at ROH since October 2024, will remain in post while the recruitment process is underway.<\/p>\n
Under his leadership, the hospital has made significant progress in stabilising its finances, improving operational performance and delivering against its long-term strategic objectives.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\nMatthew Hartland said: \u201cI\u2019m proud of the progress we\u2019ve made at ROH. We have reduced waiting times, treated more people and refined our preventative health approach. Our expert team remains committed to delivering safe, high-quality care to patients locally and nationally.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The two trusts Jo Williams is taking over are also continuing to explore the benefits of forming a Group model to increase integration and continue to strengthen local services.<\/p>\n
This follows a similar approach taken by many other NHS trusts across the country.<\/p>\n
\nAndrew Morgan, chair in common for the two trusts, said: \u201cI am delighted Jo has been appointed into this exciting new role. This is a fantastic opportunity to accelerate the good work happening between the trusts.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe has already made a positive difference in her 10 months as interim Chief Executive at SaTH and I know she has the ability, ambition, determination and compassion to drive forward excellent care for all the communities we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Jo Williams replaces Patricia Davies who has taken on a new role in Manchester.<\/p>\n
