Promoting equality, inclusion and valuing diversity are all fundamental to accessing health care and addressing better health outcomes.
The Health Board’s Commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is at the centre of everything we do. This involves building an inclusive, and diverse working environment, where equality is advanced, diversity is valued and there is a core belief in equitable access to services and discriminatory behavior is challenged from the start. We want our staff to feel valued and safe at work.
We want our patients and their families, friends and carers to feel safe and have trust in us. We recognise that when we create this culture, our services will also benefit and be compassionate, inclusive and accessible.
