OSC Draft Work Plan/Scrutiny Update
- Meeting of Health Overview & Scrutiny Committee, Wednesday, 17th October, 2018 4.00pm (Item 20.)
- View the background to item 20.
Minutes:
20.1 Fran McCabe suggested that there should be an item on cancer added to the HOSC work plan (for March 2019).
20.2 Cllr Deane suggested that the HOSC should look at the appointment cancellation rate at the Royal Sussex County Hospital. Ms McCabe added that this might usefully be expanded to look at waiting times across the planned care referral process. Cllr Theobald noted that one of the problems was that it was extremely difficult for patients to cancel appointments, since phone calls to RSCH departments frequently go unanswered.
20.3 members agreed that items on young people’s mental health, cancer and RSCH cancellations/planned care waiting times should be added to the HOSC work plan for the March 2019 meeting.
