Minutes:
14.1 The Chair gave the following communications –
“Welcome everyone to the health overview and scrutiny meeting.
We will be looking at a range of important issues this afternoon, including the sustainability of primary care in the city, Patient Transport, and what the local System Resilience Group is doing to design an effective urgent care system for Brighton & Hove.
Some of you may have seen that Brighton & Sussex University Hospitals Trust (BSUH) was recently issued with a Section 29a warning notice by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
A S29a warning notice is issued when an NHS provider needs urgently to improve specific services. We are not going to discuss the notice in detail today, as its contents are not in the public domain, and as we expect the full CQC inspection report to be published in August. We plan to hold a special meeting in September to discuss the CQC report findings and quality improvement planning in response to the report. A meeting date for this will be sent round in the next couple of weeks.”
