We work with partners across the health and care sector and in local emergency services to ensure we can respond to emergencies. We carry out regular exercises to test procedures and have a comprehensive training programme.

Chief Operating Officer, Sarah Davis assists in ensuring the Board is aware of the preparedness of the trust to respond to emergencies.

Our Resilience Committee considers all aspects of preparedness and is chaired by an executive director.

The trust is also an active member of the Kent & Medway NHS Emergency Planning Group and the South East London, Kent & Medway Trauma Network Emergency Planning Reference Group.

MTW is a member of the Kent Resilience Forum which brings together all the emergency services and other responders such as the NHS, utilities and the voluntary sector. You can find out more about their work, including the community risk register at www.kentprepared.org.uk.
