‘Health check’ self-assessment 2008

Self-assessment is part of the Healthcare Commission’s annual ‘health check’ for hospitals, which replaced the star rating system in 2006. Along with all other trusts in the country, we judge ourselves against standards which aim to measure what really matters to patients. The assessment also includes views on the quality of our services from the local community, including patient and public representatives.

Over the next three months, the Healthcare Commission will review our assessment against other nationally-held information to make sure that it is an accurate reflection of the hospital’s performance. In September they will publish the final health check, giving the hospital a rating that indicates whether our services are weak, fair, good, or excellent.
