In this episode of the One Health Podcast, Dorian Broomhall, Manager of Culture & Wellbeing, gets to know Brendan Docherty, Deputy Secretary for Hospitals and Primary Care. During our conversation, recorded back in April, Brendan speaks about growing up alongside six siblings in Scotland and becoming one of that country’s first male midwives. Brendan speaks about his focus upon the PERM principles as he progressed in his nursing career – that’s practice, education, research, and management. He also speaks about resource effectiveness as a part of clinical governance and how he considers the best use of the taxpayer’s dollar. This includes looking at new ways of using our existing infrastructure to deliver care efficiently.
