Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust runs West Cornwall Hospital, St Michael's Hospital (Hayle), Royal Cornwall Hospital, and St Austell Hospital - Penrice Birthing Unit, in Cornwall, England. In June 2013 Martin Watts resigned from his post as Chair of the Trust after external investigations into two separate complaints were upheld. In October 2013 one of the Trust's Governors complained that the health and social care system in the County was dysfunctional because some elements of health care were no longer part of the NHS, but provided by what were "essentially private contractors". Community health services in the County are now provided by Peninsula Community Health The Trust's plans to switch up to 450 jobs in catering, housekeeping, cleaning, portering, waste and switchboard functions to private companies were attacked by local Labour Party candidates in December 2013. The trust was one of 26 responsible for half of the national growth in patients waiting more than four hours in accident and emergency over the 2014/5 winter. The trust established a cleaning contract with Mitie in 2014 worth £90m over seven years. Sick pay cost £1.2m in its first eight months compared with £280,000 for the NHS in the previous financial year. UNISON blamed the rise on staff stress which it claimed had been caused by mistakes on pay. In October 2015 Bill Shields, the interim chief executive announced his resignation. The human resources director, company secretary, the interim chief operating officer and the interim director of financial recovery are also leaving. The Care Quality Commission inspected the hospital in June 2015 and rated safety in medical care and the accident and emergency department as “inadequate”. ==See also== * Healthcare in Cornwall * List of NHS trusts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
