Professional Executive CommitteeFrom 1 October 2006 to 30 May 2007 we operated withan interim Professional Executive Committee. In June 2007, weappointed a new Professional Executive Committee. Thiscommittee plays an essential role in clinical leadership. Itsmembership is drawn from the professions that are deliveringhealthcare services in the community.The members of the Professional Executive Committee provide aprofessional viewpoint on the strategy and operations of the PCT.Practice-based commissioningDoctors understand the needs of their patients and are beinggiven more influence over the services that are offered to theirpatients. This is called practice-based commissioning.Under practice-based commissioning, doctors will be able tosecure a wider range of services which are more responsive topatient needs and from which patients can choose.Much time has been spent, this year, getting the systems andprocesses right for this change in the way health services arecommissioned – or ‘bought’.Clinicians CouncilTo support the development of practice-based commissioning,nine doctors have been elected to sit on a Clinicians Council.The members of the newProfessional ExecutiveCommittee are:Dr Azhar Farooqi(Chair)Dr Liz SiddonsDr David SalkinDr Bhup ModiSatyan KotechaSerbjit KaurSharon MartMark PierceCo-opted members:GPGPGPGPPharmacistDentistAllied HealthProfessionalNurseDr Robin Graham-Brown,University Hospitals of LeicesterNHS TrustDr Jane Hoskyns, LeicestershirePartnership NHS TrustDr John Stevenson, East MidlandsAmbulance Service NHS TrustRuth Lake, Leicester City CouncilDr Adrian Brooke, Leicester CityPCT, Directorate of Operations.Discussions at the Clinicians Council will be taken into accountby the Professional Executive Committee when makingrecommendations and decisions.Working with employeesThe effects of a major re-organisation are profound, and goodcommunication is essential to ensuring staff are informed of,and involved in, the changes that are taking place.
