University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust
Patient environment improves at University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust
Date : - 06/07/2009
University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust has received mostly ‘good’ and ‘excellent’ scores in this year’s PEAT (Patient Environment Action Team) assessments, carried out by the National Patient Safety Agency.

PEATs were established in 2000 to assess NHS hospitals. Under the programme, every inpatient NHS healthcare facility in England with more than ten beds is assessed annually and given a rating of excellent, good, acceptable, poor or unacceptable. The teams consist of NHS staff, including nurses, matrons, doctors, catering and domestic service managers, executive and non-executive directors, dieticians and estates directors. They also include patients, patient representatives and members of the public.

For the first time, University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust has received an across-the-board ‘excellent’ score for the quality of food served in all its hospitals. Privacy and dignity scores also improved – in 2009, the Trust received three ‘good’ ratings and three ‘excellent’ ratings, compared to 2008 when there were five ‘good’ ratings and one ‘excellent’.

Bob Pepper, Director of Facilities and Estates, says: “We’re delighted that all the hard work we’re putting in to improving the environment for our patients has been recognised in this assessment.

“We’re confident that we will further improve on these scores as we continue to invest our resources in refurbishing wards and toilet/bathroom facilities. Work to bring the Trust’s older wards in line with new guidelines for single sex accommodation will also improve dignity and privacy for patients.”
