The removal of the conditions comes after an unannounced inspection in July that looked at how care was given. The inspection also involved interviews with patients, visitors, staff and senior managers.
The results show that the trust has addressed issues concerning:
• setting up appropriate systems for the supervision and appraisal of staff
• providing training to clinical staff who need to identify and manage patients whose health is deteriorating
However, the trust still needs to make further improvements, specifically covering how staff:
• inform patients of their discharge
• deal with violent and abusive behaviour
We will return to Basildon to assess whether its final condition, relating to reducing the risk of patients contracting legionellas, can be lifted.
