STRUCTURE: Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust is focusing on agreeing a “solid platform of financial assumptions” with commissioners, to move towards foundation status.

The work on the application has focused on creating a solid platform of financial assumptions with NHS Leeds. A similar approach is being taken on expressing the trust’s quality agenda, using Monitor’s revised application guide to produce a five year programme of improvement. There is also a programme of ownership, education and personal development in relation to foundation status for board members.
