    Risks To improve how we identify, define and manage our Digital Risks, we have made better use of our Trust Risk Register to identify not only those risks we identified and raised ourselves, but also those raised by staff across the Trust. Having this improved visibility and through the use of dashboards, we’re better able to offer support to those who raise risks, as well as tracking our activity on the risk mitigation that is carried out.

    Following our last Digital Download team update we have listened to feedback from a number of sources and changed how we’re producing our written updates. From this point forwards we’re moving from a monthly update that is internal only, to a tri-annual update which is published internally and externally. Through this change in approach, we are hoping to ensure that in addition to the internal digital team, our service users, governors, non-executive directors and peers have an opportunity to learn what we are doing and what is coming up next as we continue to drive forwards our MPFT Digital Strategy to enhance care through digital innovation.
