Acronym buster

At Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, as with many organisations, acronyms and initialisms are frequently used to describe services, systems, teams, roles and locations.

We are aware that the use of acronyms and initialisms, when not explained, can be frustrating and can sometimes lead to people feeling excluded from discussions or from fully understanding documents.

Please check our ‘acroymn buster’ list for any terms, acronyms or initialisms you may have come across that have not been explained to you.
