The Cluster Board oversees the work of the PCT and sets its strategy and direction. Its members decide the PCT’s priorities, policies and investments, and represent the interests of patients, carers and the public.
The Cluster represents three primary care trusts – NHS West Kent, NHS Eastern and Coastal Kent and NHS Medway.
We are committed to commissioning high quality healthcare services for the people of Kent and Medway. The Cluster also supports GP consortia as they prepare to take on commissioning responsibilities in the future, as well as maintaining relationships with partner organisations.
The Board comprises part-time Non Executive Directors as well as full-time Executive Directors, and is chaired by a Non Executive Director appointed by the NHS Independent Appointments Commission.
Board meetings are held bi-monthly and members of the public are welcome to observe meetings and ask the Board questions.
