It is very important that we give the very best care to the people we support and on this page you can find information about what we are doing to make sure it happens.

Our vision and strategy ensures that we always know where we are going and how we measure success.

On this page you will find information about our vision, values and strategies. These are:

• Our strategic direction
• Clinical and Social Care Strategy
• Enabling strategies:
  • Quality
  • Service User Engagement and Experience
  • Research, Innovation and Effectiveness
  • People
  • Freedom to Speak Up
  • Finance
  • Digital

  • Sustainability and Green Plan

Our vision is to improve the mental, physical and social wellbeing of the people in our communities.

We will do this by:

• Working with and speaking up for local people
• Making sure our services concentrate on prevention and early intervention
• Always improving what we do
• Locating services as close to peoples’ homes as we can
• Developing a confident workforce with colleagues who are good at what they do
• Ensuring excellent and sustainable services

Our values are a series of behaviours that everyone at SHSC is expected to follow.

We are proud to live and follow our values every day. They outline how we act to make sure we give the very best care to the people we support.

Our values are:

• Working together for our service users
• Respect and kindness
• Everyone counts
• Commitment to quality
• Improving lives

In 2021 we worked with our staff to review and relaunch our values to ensure they reflected the behaviours we expect from everyone at Team SHSC.

Our strategic direction sets out where we want to be as an organisation by 2025 and what we need to do to get there.

We have worked with our staff, the leadership group, Joint Consultative Forum, Council of Governors, Board, partners and people who use services to review our strategic direction (where we want to be).

This work led us to update our strategic aims to show the importance of addressing inclusion for our staff and people who use our services. We have updated our strategic aims to:

• Deliver outstanding care
• Create a great place to work
• Effective use of resources
• Ensure our services are inclusive
