CQC-Mid Staffs NHS Foundation Trust

So the dear old Care Quality Commission (CQC) has in its infinite wisdom found Mid Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust managed to comply with just five out of the 16 objectives set out by law to maintain quality and safety in hospitals.

Its said that while the trust had improved in some areas, the latest inspection report said problems with the way hospitals handle medicine had increased in the last 12 months.

The CQC has said it has minor concerns about eight other standards and moderate concerns about three, including management of medicine , supporting workers and complaints.

Inspectors said many of the concerns would be addressed once action plans were in place.

"Our findings lead us to have a moderate concern in the management of medicines," the report said.

I just love the MODERATE ! To me its totally unacceptable !!!
