  Welcome on Board presents non-executive directors of primary care trusts with a guide to the NHS the role they have to play and the expectations they will have and others have of them. This is not a 'how to do it' book - it cuts a path through some of the long grass that the NHS inhabits. The aim is to help non-execs get where they want with a minimum of fuss and jargon. 'Primary care trusts should be firmly engaged and involved with their local communities. As non-executive Directors you are best placed to make sure this happens. This book provides a useful tool to help you and your organisation deliver the best care possible for your local population.' From the Foreword by the Minister of State for Health 'The work of non-executive directors in PCTs will be demanding but exciting. Whether you have experience of being a non-executive director or are considering applying to become one this book will help you. This book makes an important contribution by assisting you in mastering your role and fulfilling your potential.' Peter Smith Chair of the National Association for Primary Care
