You’ve done a lot over these five weeks:

1. Reflected on your 2025 story.
2. Looked honestly at your staffing and rota.
3. Calmed your relationship with compliance.
4. Brought residents’ lived experience back into focus.
5. Tuned up the operational engine behind the scenes of a successful service

Now it’s time to turn all of that into a clear 2026 roadmap.

The aim is simple: when you walk into January, you already know what you’re aiming for, why it matters, and how you’ll track progress. You’ll still have surprises – this is care, after all – but you won’t be drifting.
