Overall, maternity services have been evaluated as the need for improvement to safe and well lead.

Next Donna Okenden’s criticismWhich is leading the maternity deaths and reviews of injuries in the trust, CQC has admitted that the report was not published “as soon as it should have done”.

Ask cQC Five major questions – Are services safe, effective, careful, are responsible for people’s needs, and are they leading well?

After a inspection conducted on June 18, June 19 and July 3, CQC ratings for maternity services in both hospitals – Queen’s Medical Center (QMC) and City Hospital – require improvement in good improvement for effectively effective improvement.

Care was re -rated, while inspection did not include a responsive rating and is good.

After the publication of her report, CQC apologized for the delay, which was labeled by senior midwife Ms. Okenden last month.

A CQC spokesperson said, “Due to a massive change program in CQC, the report (not published immediately after inspection).

“The program involves changes in the use of technology CQC, but resulted in problems with systems and procedures rather than intended benefits. The amount of time used to publish this report is much less than the people using services and the trust and the trust should be able to expect and CQC apologizes for it.”

The CQC said that last year the trust inspection was motivated by the employees with concern.

The Watchdog stated that the infection violations in the city hospital related to control procedures, equipment safety, drugs and expressing milk storage.

QMC related infection control procedures, equipment safety and violations in drug management and storage.

Inspectors stated that learning opportunities were not always shared with employees to promote good practice, and that sufficiently less number of qualified employees means that appropriate resources were not always possible.

Other issues were that people were not always convinced about raising concerns, drug storage was put at risk by inconsistent temperature regulation, and the investigation on emergency equipment was not always complete.

An action plan, which focuses on these concerns, has already been submitted by the trust, the inspectors said.

However, CQC also found that most people felt that the environment was safe and when they need it, most could take care of care.

Helen Rawings, an interim director of network operations at Midlands at CQC, said: “It is clear that employees and leaders worked hard to make some improvements, and since last year, the leaders have assured us that further reforms have been made.

“We will continue to monitor the trust to ensure that more changes have been made and women, people using people and their children have the right to get safe care, which they have the right to expect.”

Anthony May, Chief Executive Officer of the Trust said: “I believe that these inspections took place after contacting CQC directly after colleagues in maternity services. I want to thank him for his courage in speaking.

“Importantly, CQC found that women and families are treated with compassion and compassion, and that our environment is primarily safe and gives good results.

“All violations of regulation taken during inspection have been addressed and we have provided CQC with an action plan to assure compliance.

“We know that women and families should be done more to improve the quality of care, but our communities can be assured that we are moving in the right direction.”
