Call You and Yours: Hospital standards
Julian Worricker asks if hospital standards need improving, as the Medical Director of the NHS in England prepares to deliver his report into mortality rates.
As the Medical Director of the NHS in England prepares to deliver his report into high mortality rates at 14 NHS Trusts, Julian Worricker asks, what needs to be done to raise standards in hospitals?
The Keogh Report will set out what these trusts need to do to improve care. It's not the first report to make recommendations into hospital standards this year. The Francis Report called for minimum staffing levels and the regulation of health care assistants.
