CUH - Four Year Strategic Plan

Cork University Hospital Four Year Strategic Plan │ Fit for Fifty │ 1978 - 2028

Introducing our Cork University Hospital Strategic Plan ‘Fit for Fifty’ 1978 – 2028 which sets out our five strategic priority areas which are aligned with key national policies and documents:

• Our Performance
• Our Infrastructure
• Our People
• Research Innovation & Education
• Digital Transformation

This strategy document, Fit for Fifty - Our Plan for Our Services for You, has been developed as a roadmap to facilitate unity of purpose for all stakeholders over the next four years, and to set out how CUH will continue to develop into a cohesive and effective provider of specialist acute services. It has been created with input from across the organisation and sets out how CUH will make choices to drive quality, access to care, integration of services and organisational excellence that best meet the needs of its population, while also promoting the CUH as an employer of choice for highly skilled professionals into the future.

This plan marks the culmination of a comprehensive two-year review of corporate governance processes and strategic planning for Cork University Hospital. It outlines our approach to enhancing healthcare delivery across the South West Region, ensuring that patients receive care of the highest standard. As a foundational document, it sets the stage for our continued development as a model 4 hospital within the newly established South West Region, promoting best practices through collaboration and cooperation.

Furthermore, this plan will be supported and refined by forthcoming Directorate and Specialty clinical strategies, currently in development. These strategies will align with the new regional structures to create an integrated, patient-centred healthcare delivery system.
