This would focus on the early help / integration agenda, with a focus on 0-3 year olds and integration of services. The Munro report had made it clear that child protection was a ‘whole system’ issue.
Update from the Strategic Director for Adults and Family Wellbeing · The Health and Social Care Bill had now been through the House of Lords, and a very interesting debate had been held. It was likely that the Secretary of State would remain responsible for a comprehensive and national health service. · The Care Quality Commission had published a report on dignity and nutrition. Inspections had been carried out in 100 hospitals, with very worrying results. Stoke Mandeville had been one of the hospitals inspected and had had very good results.
The Board agreed that a letter of congratulations on the good inspection results from CQC should be sent to the Chief Executive of Buckinghamshire Healthcare Trust – Action.
