Important update: Performance Development Review (PDR) 2021/22 – Change to PDR window for this season

For staff moving to Mersey Care - To maintain our continued commitment in enabling all colleagues to get the most out of PDR conversations, we have being working closely with colleagues at Mersey Care to review their PDR process and systems, and agree the best way forward for colleagues transferring across to them. Collectively we have agreed to move the PDR window for this year and for it to open from June 2021 to September 2021 for this year, allowing for all conversations to be meaningful and ensure all personal development plans are aligned to the appropriate strategic objectives.

 We are busy updating our PDR documents so that they align to those used at Mersey Care and we are in the process of scheduling dates for PDR training. Sessions will be aimed at supporting both Reviewees and Reviewers. Please look out for further information, communication and how to book onto PDR training sessions in April’s Core Brief .

We thank you for your patience during this time and should you have any additional queries, please contact the od.team@nwbh.nhs.uk
