abstract: When Helen Greatorex took up her new job as chief executive of Kent and Medway NHS and Social Care Partnership Trust, one of her first acts was to concentrate on out-of-area placements for mental health patients. At the time - early June - the trust had 76 patients in beds outside the area, costing £1million a month.
