NBT Cares

It's a very simple statement; one which epitomises how everybody across our organisation goes the extra mile to ensure our patients get the best possible care.

NBT Cares is also an acronym, standing for caring, ambitious, respectful and supportive - our organisational values.

And our NBT Cares values are underpinned by our positive behaviours framework - a framework that provides clear guidance on how colleagues can work with one another in a constructive and supportive way.

Patients are the most important people in the health service and are at the centre of what we do.

Patients and carers are the 'experts' in how they feel and what it is like to live with or care for someone with a particular illness or condition.

The patients' experience of our services should guide the way we deliver services and influence how we engage with patients every day in our work.

All staff should communicate effectively in their day to day practice with patients and should support and enable patients/carers to make choices, changes and influence the way their treatment or care is provided.

All staff, managers and Board members should work to promote effective patient, carer and public involvement in all elements of their work
