180 Days of Action on Workforce: taking care of our people, the Partnership’s most valuable asset.

In December 2021, key partners from across our system came together to develop the Humber and North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership People Strategy. This ‘One Workforce’ vision sets out how we support and develop our current workforce, and how we will shape and grow our future workforce.

To support the strategy, in September 2022, 180 Days of Action on Workforce was launched, inviting people from across the system to contribute to the task of defining our priorities and plans. Some 185 individuals volunteered – at a time when our system is working under unprecedented pressure, this is a significant achievement. The 180 Days of Action on Workforce will come to an end in late March.

In January, the group came together to review progress and share successes. After 120 days, changes can be seen in how we think and work together, and how we are developing system solutions to system problems. Our partners have reflected on the value of coming together to develop ideas and highlight current good practice around our priorities, recognising the importance of developing a shared understanding of what we currently do and what we could do together in the future.
