Mansfield CCG highlights transfers problem at Sherwood Hospitals

They also highlight the continued pressure on both Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust in meeting the Accident & Emergency 4-hour target where it says both trusts are failing to meet the 95 per cent target.

And the CCG has also been informed of the ambulance turnaround times at Kings Mill Hospital-part of Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust-which are still exceeding the 15 minute standard.

It says: “Penalties have been set in the 2012/13 contract and any wait over an hour will require a formal investigation via a Root Cause Analysis.”
