Written Question
Hospitals: Standards
Tuesday 19th December 2017

Asked by: Nigel Huddleston (Conservative - Droitwich and Evesham)

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

What recent progress his Department has made on improving the performance of hospitals in special measures.

Answered by Philip Dunne

The Special Measures programme has been in place since 2013 with 37 instances of trusts entering. 21 trusts have exited Special Measures since the programme began, including five which have exited since March this year. I particularly congratulate Colchester, which exited in November.

Eight former Special Measures trusts are now rated either “Good” or “Outstanding”.

Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust

"I thank my hon. Friend for giving way again. Does she agree that low morale and any hospital being in special measures has a knock-on effect on recruitment, because people are a bit more reluctant to start or pursue their careers in those hospitals? The challenges that that brings need …..."
