Sally Hardy has joined the Suffolk and Norfolk NHS foundation in an attempt to try and better the industry. She has taken up the new position and she hopes to try and turn it around. The trust has been rated as not good enough in the past, with the current status being “inadequate”. It is her goal to try and bring some fresh eyes to the sector. She started out her career in London and she is also known for having a clinical degree as well. She has a doctorate from UA and then she moved to Australia. It is there where she carried out work at the Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.

Upon returning to England, she then held a senior position at the City University where she contemplated going into care jobs or working with a nurse agency. She debated a nursing recruitment agency where she could work with carers too. She then returned to the UEA as a deal for the School of Health Sciences. She has said that she is very excited about the concept of joining the team and that she hopes to help turn things around by simply giving support to those who need it. She has also said that she sees an opportunity to improve the healthcare sector by engaging with staff and various social care organisations. She wants to try and look into exciting possibilities and she is very willing to try and make sure that everyone is getting the care that they need without compromise. She is also able to bring a clinical perspective, along with knowledge in regards to improving change across various complex organisations. She wants to do what she can to improve mental health services and she is very proud of the work that she has done in the past. Only time will tell if a change is going to be made but right now things are looking up.
