Dr Andrea Gordon, CQC deputy director of operations (regions), says
"Kings Mill Hospital must make sure it has robust processes in place to assure itself that it can manage and identify any risks or issues. Where issues are identified these have to be clearly communicated to trust leaders so any necessary action can be taken. It is imperative that any improvements the trust makes are sustainable and maintained for the future.....
......During our own inspection we found patients spoke positively about their care and treatment and we have been receiving updates from the trust on the work it is doing to improve."
