JBr 3 PRESENTATION BY MR SIMON NEVILLE Mr Simon Neville presented to the subgroup details of the Trust s capital 3

4 plans for the next seven years. He detailed the capital investment objectives and explained the two funding streams which would meet the costs whilst emphasising that the plans were focused on improving the environment of the hospital and not on increasing capacity. The subgroup discussed the plans, in particular: Car parking Associate Cancer Centre Potential impact of losing women s and children s services 4 TERMS OF REFERENCE The subgroup considered its draft Terms of Reference. The Chair commented that the focus of the group should be strategic but considered that the draft Terms were evaluative and tended towards scrutiny. He therefore proposed a review of them. Governors concurred and agreed that the draft Terms should be revised. Julie Bradley was asked to prepare a further draft for the subgroup s review. JBr 5 WORK PLAN It was agreed that the subgroup would devote its next meeting to the preparation of a Work Plan. 6 LINK TO STRATEGIC DIRECTION SUBGROUP Governors supported the proposal for the Strategic Direction subgroup of the Council of Governors to be made up of Chairs of the other five subgroups. Julie Bradley explained that a paper would be presented to the Council at its March meeting setting out options for membership composition. As Chair of the Access subgroup Ian Carter made it known that he sat on the Trust s Patient Experience subgroup and so had a link through to operational issues also. 7 ANY OTHER BUSINESS Mike Hall stated that there was an opportunity to review signage across the hospital site as the building work took place. Simon Neville reported that hospital wayfinding was known to be greatly helped by there being 4

5 landmarks which people could use to orientate themselves and also by being able to see where they were actually going The subgroup thought that a useful area of focus for inclusion in its Work Plan might be information that was offered to patients of the Trust Simon Neville referred to the SHIFT Programme (Salford s Health Investment For Tomorrow) which was concerned not only with buildings on the hospital site but also redesigning health care services so that they could be provided in a different way. He suggested that the subgroup may wish to think about whether providing services on the hospital site was the best way of making them accessible or whether they might be provided elsewhere or in a different way 7 DATE AND TIME OF NEXT MEETING Governors agreed that the subgroup would meet bi-monthly with a late afternoon start e.g pm. Julie Bradley agreed to schedule a programme of meetings for 2007 and circulate to Governors accordingly. JBr 5
