About
Although a comparatively small provider of hospital services by todays standards South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust nonetheless is consistently ranked as one of the best by the organisations which inspect and regulate us The Healthcare Commission the independent body which inspects us gave us ratings of Excellent for the quality of our services and Excellent for the use of resources In addition we underwent two additional Healthcare Commission inspections last year one looking at some of the core standards set for us and testing whether our declared level of compliance was accurate and one looking specifically at the Hygiene Code We achieved excellent results in both of these inspections and it is a great credit to our staff that when we receive external visits such as these we always receive feedback about how knowledgeable and well practised all of our team are in the importance of maintaining national standards such as infection control This latter issue is of high national importance to everyone who uses the health service and once again we continue to maintain some of the lowest infection rates in the country despite increasing service pressures
