North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust: Inspections

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment she has made of the potential implications for her policies of the Care Quality Commission's inspection report on North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust, published on 28 March 2024.

Answer: Following the publication of the inspection report on 28 March 2024, the Care Quality Commission continues to closely monitor the trust, and hold regular engagement meetings with senior managers. The trust is in segment 3 of the NHS Oversight Framework, which means they are receiving mandated regional support from NHS England. This process involves a diagnostic stocktake to identify the key drivers of the concerns that need to be resolved, understanding their support needs, and agreeing improvement actions. The trust’s leadership team and board are examining their processes and practices to improve them, and to deliver further improvements for staff, patients, and the local community.
