Type 1 Supportive |
I am impressed with this report and the extent of working with partners. (Site D, PCT). |
Are you happy with the 4 h target? [Board setting criteria for pilot work in the new Minor Injuries Unit] (Site A, PCT). |
How are the problems with the NHS IT system affecting the staff at grass-roots level? (Site E, FT). |

How have we managed to reduce both long term and short-term sickness? (Site H, SGT). |
Do we know why our C. Diff rates have improved so much? (Site E, FT) |
The success of the sexual health model is to be applauded; is there a model here that we can also use for immunisation? (Site C, PCT). |

Why is COPD not included in the top ten [World Class Commissioning] priorities? (Site D, PCT). |
It says here that we’re running at 148 % capacity: how? (Site G, SGT). |
Why are almost 50 % patients waiting more than 31 days? (Site A, PCT) |
Why are we focusing on hips and knees [in reducing waiting lists]? (Site E, FT). |

Type 4 Option Assessment |
Will the new informatics strategy improve co-ordination of diabetes management? (Site B, PCT). |
What are the complaints about? We’re far more interested in the nature of the complaints; we need more detail on this rather than the process to resolve them. (Trust G, SGT). |
What are the additional costs for pre-op screening of all patients [for MRSA]? (Site H, SGT). |
The risks and staffing are quite different for home and hospital births; are the tariffs [i.e., payments to the hospital] different? (Site E, FT). |

How will we know that changes [resulting from a Health Care Commission report on one of the provider trusts] are being sustained? (Site B, PCT) |
Who are we consulting with [about regionalisation of stroke and trauma services]? (Site C, PCT). |
How will we review this [Health Care Commission] rating during the year to ensure we’re not in the same situation again? (Site F, FT). |
How can we take this [problem with inpatient and outpatient waiting times] forward in relation to our Foundation Trust application? (Site H, SGT). |
