Section 15 - Risk Management Policies

As a Public Service provider one of the most critical aspects of our operations is managing and controlling risk. Sound risk management is in fact, a key ingredient of the Trust strategy for continued growth and therefore one of our core competencies.  We rely upon a strong risk management framework to ensure that we achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and to secure and preserve the trust and confidence of Service Users, Commissioners and Regulators.  The Trust policy portfolio reflects the range of policies and Trust-wide procedures which have been agreed and implemented in the organisation.
