The project champions the role of our Registered Managers in Adult Social Care and highlights the importance of developing management and leadership skills both for individual professional development and to support the best health and care outcomes across the integrated care system.

As well as ensuring high quality, safe and effective care services, they also help develop a motivated, confident and caring workforce that is both highly skilled and most importantly, valued by all those who draw on care and support’
