LYNNE FEATHERSTONE COMMENTS ON HARINGEY RESULT IN HEATHCARE COMMISSION HEALTH CHECK
Lynne Featherstone, Lib Dem MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, commenting on the Healthcare Commission annual ‘healthcheck’ for Haringey Teaching and Primary Care Trust (TPCT)says:
“The ‘fair’ grading for both quality of service and use of resources is still two step away from excellent.If you look deeper into these gradings you can see that Haringey TPCT was in the bottom 30% in only partly meeting existing national targets.
“More worryingly, this report has flagged up several areas where the Trust is clearly underperforming, such as supporting people in their own homes, helping people give up smoking, tackling childhood obesity and substantially reducing deaths from cancer.
“These are not just abstract, pie in the sky targets, but things that have a real impact on health and wellbeing of Haringey citizens.The Trust quite simply needs to up its game, but in the face of the huge financial onslaught from this Labour government, it is difficult to see how.”
