You will lead the team and support the wider MDT to create an environment where we are able to acknowledge our service users' cultures, life experiences, protected characteristics and their strengths to help promote their recovery.

The culture and ethos of approach within our PICU is aimed at ensuring that co-production of care with our service users is an essential and key part of their recovery journey.
