Today 5 teams covered 20 Ward Area’s of Peterborough City Hospital @ Bretton.
I was teamed with The Facilities Manager and Infection Control Manager.
Our visit on each Ward was around 45 minutes and we only ‘found’ one area that needed immediate attention.
We were ‘treated’ to the same food that patients receive – there was a good choice and all food is ‘cooked’ on the Ward.
This was the first assessment for 3 years as none were done whilst the COVID Pandemic
was at high levels.
Tomorrow Thursday I will be part of a small team at Peterborough City Hospital.
We are conducting a ‘Patient Led Assessment’ of the Hospital Environment, this includes everything except Medical criteria.
It will include access, cleanliness, food, decore.
How people with Dementia are being treated.
Toilets, Hygiene and associated equipement.
Privacy, Dignity and Wellbeing.
The above are some of a raft of things we will be assessing.
The results are fed back to the Hospital Directorate & Management.
I shall be out all day and will not be putting any posts up until tomorrow evening.
