In a recently conducted surprise inspection to check the quality and safety of the hospital, Royal United Hospital has come out with flying colors.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has reported that the hospital stands up to all the essential standards. It inspected the treatment procedures at the place and interacted with the patients about the services provided.

It was then found that the hospital provides up-to-the-mark services via well supervised and trained staff. The patients were found to be dealt with respect and care and no cases of abuse or any such incident emerged.

All the five essential standards i. e. treatment of people with respect, providing care and support according to their need, safety, staffing standards and management standards were perfectly met by the hospital.

The commission, therefore, said that the hospital has cleared the scrutiny. The officials of CQC derived the results after visiting the healthcare unit thrice in two months. They inspected the surgical wards, emergency wards, theatres, recovery unit, ICU, pre-operative assessment unit and the day surgery unit separately.

Satisfied by the reports of CQC, the Director of Nursing at the Royal United said, "We are delighted with the assessment by the CQC that we are fully compliant and meeting all the essential standards of quality and safety across different wards and units".
