Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust: Dermatology

(asked on 2nd June 2015) - View Source

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to hold Rushcliffe Clinical Commissioning Group to account for the failures in the commissioning of dermatology specialist services at the Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust, described in a report of the independent investigation as an "unmitigated disaster".


This question was answered on 9th June 2015

The independent service review of dermatology services in Nottingham was initiated by Rushcliffe Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), as the co-ordinating commissioner for Circle Nottingham services on behalf of the four Nottinghamshire CCGs.

The review reported on 4 June 2015, finding that no one person or organisation is to blame for the current problems faced by dermatology services in Nottingham. The review panel made recommendations for joint action by Rushcliffe CCG, Circle and Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust to address the immediate local situation. It also made a national recommendation for consideration by Health Education England.
