“I came! I saw! I turned around!”
The Director of Corporate Affairs and Communications of the worst-run mental health trust in the NHS, Rebecca Driver, only appointed just before Christmas, demonstrates her commitment to mental health, her faith in Antek Lejk and her loyalty to NSFT by quitting in the New Year.
Let’s bet there are pay rises involved!
@ComHealthUnison @nikkijfox It is wrong, they ought to be honest. Antek Lejk is working out his notice. It remains to be seen how much work it will entail. But in six months, Antek Lejk will be off the payroll. In the meantime, he will trouser his £175,000 p.a. salary from NHS coffers.

She came. She saw. She fled.
Hopefully there’ll be a FOI request to discover the obscene amount that this cost NSFT to try to defend the indefensible.
So, in post for four weeks not counting any annual leave she took over Christmas and the New Year…did she hand in her notice after the interview results, or on her first day.????
Constant reshuffling at the top, recycling mediocrity and the people who cause chaos and uncertainty. New strategy documents abound, but frightening lack of stability for the people with health and social care continuing needs – all under the guise of quality improvement.
