STRUCTURE: The mental health trust published a draft business plan produced by KPMG which said a full business plan would be needed to decide whether the trust should cut down from five inpatient sites to two.
The mental health trust is committed to having no more than three inpatient sites but appears not to have made a decision over whether to lose another.
The five main inpatient sites at the moment are: Springfield Hospital, Tolworth Hospital, Sutton Hospital, Barnes Hospital and Queen Mary’s Hospital (Roehampton).
The key risk identified was a failure of the trust to get planning permission to redevelop its Springfield site in Tooting.
