Introduction to Innovation at CDDFT

CDDFT proactively encourages innovation.

Like almost every other organisation there is a need for continuing improvements in patient care and non-patient care processes. Subsequently we encourage staff engagement in innovation at all levels.

Any staff member can identify unmet needs or service improvement opportunities. Because of this we want anyone with an innovative idea to come forward and tell us about it so we can support them in taking their idea forward. Our doors are open to support innovators and we are keen to recognise and implement new innovations wherever/whenever possible.

'I cannot commend the clinic enough. It is marvellous we have this service at all and well done to you all.'
