Our view of the service

Date of assessment 27 February to 19 June 2024. We conducted an on-site, focussed assessment visit of urgent and emergency care services on 25 March 2024 in response to concerns around access and flow and care of patients in non-clinical areas. We assessed a small number of quality statements from the safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led key questions. The scores for these areas have been combined with scores based on the key question ratings from the last inspection. Therefore, our overall rating for urgent and emergency care remains requires improvement and the overall service remains outstanding.
