Two new Non-Executive Directors have been appointed to help manage Lincolnshire’s hospitals and build on achievements made in recent years.
Dr Paul Grassby and Geoffrey Hayward have recently been appointed to the Trust Board of the United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust.
As Non-Executive Directors, they will be responsible for challenging and contributing to the development of the Trust and scrutinising its performance.
Dr Grassby currently holds the position of Head of Pharmacy at the University of Lincoln where he is responsible for developing a new School of Pharmacy with a modern curriculum and research strategy and building links with local stakeholders to develop strategies to meet the health care needs of an aging population.
Mr Hayward previously served for eight years as Non-Executive Director for the NHS at Stockport Primary Care Trust as Chair of Audit Committee and then with the Clinical Commissioning Group where he was a key player in setting up their risk registers, supporting the training of board members in risk management and driving the responsibility for risk throughout the organisation.
Chairman, Paul Richardson said: “The Trust is pleased to have been able to appoint two talented members who will add to the existing strength of the Board for the next stage of the organisation’s development.”
