A review found evidence of management engaging in 'discrimination, bullying and blame culture' in the health and social care sector
Sajid Javid pledged urgent action to overhaul management in the health and social care sector.The Health Secretary has pledged to oversee "the biggest shake-up of leadership in decades" in the health and social care sector after a review found evidence of "discrimination, bullying and blame culture".
A Department of Health and Social Care press release ahead of the full publication said that while the review recognised the pressures on the sector and had identified many examples of inspirational leadership, overall it found "a lack of consistency and co-ordination".In particular, it said that there had developed over time "an 'institutional inadequacy' in the way that leadership and management is trained, developed and valued".
Mr Javid said he fully supported the report's recommendations, saying it was essential that staff and patients had the leadership they deserved. Among the report's recommendations are action to improve equality, diversity and inclusion, the development of consistent management standards through accredited training, and clear routes to progression and promotion to ensure a "strong pipeline of future talent".
"A well-led, motivated, valued, collaborative, inclusive, resilient workforce is the key to better patient and public health outcomes, and must be a priority," he said.
