CNTW provides a wide range of mental health, learning disability, autism and neuro-rehabilitation services to a population of 1.8 million people across North Cumbria and the North East of England.<\/p>\n
It employs more than 9,000 staff, working in 70 sites with an annual turnover of about \u00a3647m.<\/p>\n
The CQC report, based on an inspection in autumn, found “examples of great partnership working” but also found “pockets of poor culture”. <\/p>\n
The findings included:<\/p>\n
The trust did not always ensure safeguarding concerns were accurately reported to local authorities and staff were confused about what type of incidents should be reported<\/p>\n
High vacancy and sickness rates, which mean an increased reliance on temporary employees <\/p>\n
Some staff felt work was needed to address bullying and discrimination<\/p>\n
Berry said “staff told us leaders were making decisions without always consulting” those who were providing the care, and “some didn’t feel safe speaking up when they had concerns”. <\/p>\n
She added: “It’s absolutely critical that the trust tackle this issue. <\/p>\n
“Everyone should feel respected, and able to speak up.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CNTW provides a wide range of mental health, learning disability, autism and neuro-rehabilitation services to a population of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":392945,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[163,521,85,46],"class_list":["post-392944","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-healthcare","tag-health","tag-healthcare","tag-il","tag-israel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392944","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392944"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392944\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/392945"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392944"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392944"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392944"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
