BHRUT NHS 🏥

Great to visit and say thank you to the BHRUT NHS 🏥 Patient advice and Complaints teams #thegoodguys today. Good discussion on resolving issues quickly and ensuring that common themes are fed back and acted on.

Why are we so ill? The working-age health crisis bbc.in/4d4aeJs

A 🧵 about why so many people of working age are not currently in work, in response to those who say that they are workshy and happy to live off benefits.

The Tobacco and Vapes Bill, if passed, will prevent thousands of people being disabled or dying prematurely.

Tobacco addicts people at a young age, taking their choices away and then killing them.

The 4 UK CMOs support creating a smokefree generation.

We’ve appointed a new Chair Designate for King George & Queen's Hospitals Charity. Lara Sonola, an experienced charity chair & independent consultant helping charities & public bodies. She said: “I’m looking forward to getting to know the team & working closely with the Trust.' bhrhospitals.nhs.uk/news/new-chair…

Today we welcomed our first patients in to our new state-of-the-art Community Diagnostic Centre at Barking Community Hospital 🙌💙

Patient feedback has been brilliant including from local resident Sam (below) who was the fifth person to have a MRI scan this morning

So how is BHRUT NHS 🏥 making improvements, not just in emergency care, but across its services? It started with leadership - restoring credibility and engaging the wider staff in the challenges the hospital faces. I particularly liked the idea of the shadow executive 4/5

. BHRUT NHS 🏥 has the most improved performance in emergency care in the country. I visited this week to meet CEO Matthew Trainer and get a sense of how improvements are being made 🧵 1/5

King George Hospital, part of BHRUT NHS 🏥, has seen ongoing, sustained, improvement in patient flow since they opened their SDEC unit in June '23. The number of A&E patients seen within four hours dramatically improved by almost 50% (14,284 in Feb 2023 to 21,150 in Feb 2024). 12/x

Today’s national data shows we exceeded the A&E recovery target, treating 77.5% of patients within 4 hours, even with March being our busiest month ever. Despite this achievement, we know too many patients are still waiting too long. ow.ly/4mmm50RcWHN

“Really impressive stuff”

Matthew Taylor reflects on a fascinating visit to BHRUT NHS 🏥, which has seen significant improvements in recent years, to become the most improved trust in England for emergency care performance.

“It was a massive effort to help tackle our waiting list.”

Shout out to the BHRUT NHS 🏥 women’s health team, who completed 60 operations in just six days during their gynaecology week! 💪

They performed 38 major surgeries and 22 robotic procedures to help cut their waiting list.
