At a recent meeting with Engaging Communities Staffordshire - the would-be patient representative body for the county - I was told that 'Mid-Staffs has moved on' - clearly not! This is my local hospital and worrying stories about it still dominate our local newspapers, months after the end of the Francis inquiry public stage and the national press has moved on to other things. Will anyone be taken to task over the 'discrepancy' between the self assessment and peer assessment? Who signed off the self assessment in the first place and will anything be done about it? I am not an NHS basher - far from it - but Mid-Staffs absolutely takes the biscuit.
