the hospital will get more funding and they | :02:21. | :02:32. | |
will be watching for | :02:33. | :02:33. | |
improvements closely. What is the hospital doing about it | :02:34. | :02:50. | |
all? I put it to the deputy earlier. The inspection was in June and we | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
were straight on some of the immediate issues and have attacked | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
those with vigour. This is a very doable transformation because | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
they're CQC Will clear. This is not about clinical outcomes or patient | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
experience. This is about process and this makes it easier to do. | :03:11. | :03:39. | |
In the report there are some grim readings from patients | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
The fridges in the mortuary not being fit for purpose or delays | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
in answering call bells from some of the surgical wards. | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
That seems to show disrespect to the patients in a way. | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
What is your message to them tonight? | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
Certainly the mortuary environment needed refurbishment | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
but we were quite clear we did not have last year the capital | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
There was never any risk to any of our diseased patients. | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
The temperature recordings were all within limits | :04:03. | :04:03. | |
and the refurbishment has already been completed and a final | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
inspection will take place in December. | :04:07. | :04:07. | |
The call bell issue is a direct part of the staffing issues | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
which we worked hard to make sure we have enough staff on the wards | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
to answer the call bells quickly, particularly | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
That has demonstrated an improvement since June. | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
What will you do as a leadership role to make things better? | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
My job is to drive those improvements and I think | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
with extra financial support, extra support for the buildings | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
that we need and are badly in need of repair that people have known | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
The support from our stakeholders I think the quality and the level | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
of improvement really will be very clear for the CQC to see next year. | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
Are you hoping everything can be in place by next year? | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
We are but we need some support from our commissioners | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
and from primary care because there is more that we need. | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
We need at least 60 extra beds in hospital, we need Health | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
and Social Care beds in the community, | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
we need access to end of life facilities outside. | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
It is not all within our bailiwick but as long as we have the support | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
of the Health and Social Care and regulators, I do believe | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
we are the right team to lead this organisation forward. | :05:13. | :05:26. | |
In other news, a murder investigation has been launched | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
in Luton in Bedfordshire after a body was found in a bin | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
The male corpse was discovered at about 9 o'clock last night. | :05:32. | :05:44. | |
The body was found on Essex close. Police say it could have been that | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
the several days. We don't know who the man was or how he came to die | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
but people living in the nearby area say they have been left worried. | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
Everyone is our block is saying they want to move out of here. It is so | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
terrifying. You don't know when the next attack will be. There was | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
shooting around the corner. Shocked it can be found so close to where | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
are working. We walked down here every day and there is always kids | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
about. It is worrying that you could find a body that close. You hear | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
about it in the newspapers but never know it will happen yet -- here. | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
They are linking it with the death of a woman on Essex close. The body | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
was found on Monday 10th of October and initially it was being treated | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
as an unexplained death. Detectives say they are looking into the | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
possibility that she was also murdered. They say this is a complex | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
investigation and working to establish how both the man and the | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
woman to die. A man arrested on two counts of murder remains in police | :06:59. | :07:00. | |
custody. The future of a health care complex | :07:01. | :07:15. | |
has been thrown into disarray tonight. This has come out of the | :07:16. | :07:27. | |
blue. Rumour started seeping out early this evening. For anyone who | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
works at Addenbrooke's, the forum was supposed to be a health and | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
leisure complex for both staffs and patience. It was made up of a | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
private hospital, a hotel and an education centre. Addenbrooke's deal | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
with the contractors to build on the biomedical campus almost three years | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
ago. It was heralded as a first for the NHS with private money funding | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
the project but Addenbrooke's taking a cut of the project -- profits. | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
That was in 2013. The building was meant to be opening this summer but | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
that date has come and gone and with Ramsey Health Care pulling out, | :08:09. | :08:18. | |
there is no time for this. They wonder whether relationships broke | :08:19. | :08:19. | |
down. They declined to be drawn on down. They declined to be drawn on | :08:20. | :08:27. | |
the matter. Tonight, Addenbrooke's expressed disappointment with the | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
decision but said other parties have now come forward. Unemployment has | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
risen for the first time in four months but the number of people in | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
work is still at a record high. The total out of work stands at 120 | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
3000. A rise of 11,000 on the previous quarter. The regional | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
unemployment rate is 3.9% compared with 4.9 nationally. 600 jobs are at | :08:51. | :09:00. | |
risk at Travis Perkins. They are closing 30 branches, ten | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
distribution centres and the government says the job market is | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
buoyant. It is always a matter of disappointment when jobs go in for | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
the individuals and families concerned it can be a period of | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
uncertainty. Overall, more jobs are being created then going and that is | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
why we have kept the employment rate as it is. We hope people can get | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
into suitable employment quickly. The rest of the night looks clear | :09:28. | :09:45. | |
with some showers out there. Temperatures down to nine Celsius. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
The pressure put on tomorrow is similar to today. Showers moving | :09:50. | :09:55. | |
further east. The centre of that low moving away and high-pressure moving | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
in from the west. Dry weather around but still the risk of some showers. | :10:03. | :10:10. | |
Hopefully some sunshine as well. Quite a brisk breeze with highs of | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
13 Celsius. The National Weather Service coming up. Here is our | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
outlook and it is reasonably settled. Dry and bright weather | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
around. An easterly wind develops. | :10:25. | :10:26. |
