Destination Unknown

I've decided, as they say in the coal mining industry, to "tek an early bath". When I choose; on a high note. Sometimes, the time is just right.

Our Trust probably now has one of the safest set-ups for managing infections, sepsis, avoiding C-diff and MRSA and more, in the UK.

Eight years' fantastic, challenging, tough but exhilarating work. Massively supported by all surgeons and medics, without exception. I'll be meeting the Deputy Chief Exec in the next few weeks to ensure continuity and that certain professional and clinical issues are dealt with.

So, destination unknown. Exciting...
