St. Peter's Hospital

Some of the facts      

 

   The Trust faced a significant challenge in achieving financial balance and meeting service delivery targets for the year ending 31st March 2005. The Trust is in the process of identifying further measures to achieve the required level of income and expenditure reduction to achieve financial balance in 2005/06.The Trust was granted an extension from three to five years to achieve its cumulative breakeven duty. This was due to be met by 31st March 2005 but was not and the Trust has failed this duty. Following discussions with Surrey and Sussex Strategic Health Authority, they have agreed to discuss solutions with the Department of Health.The Trust received planned support in the financial year of £13m from the NHS Bank. In 2005/06, no support is expected from the NHS Bank. However, it is anticipated that £5m of planned support will be made available from Surrey and Sussex StHA.The Capital Cost Absorption Rate, External Financing Limit and Capital Resource Limit were all within accepted tolerances.

Surrey PCT: Creating an NHS Fit for Future public consultation

The five primary care trusts in Surrey and Sussex – Surrey, West Sussex, Brighton and Hove, Hastings and Rother, and East Sussex Downs and Weald – have been working through an extensive programme to design a new health system that will bring more care closer to people’s homes and, at the same time, ensure the local NHS lives within its means.

We had hoped to begin formal consultation this autumn but, after talking to a wide variety of people, including NHS staff, patients, other partner agencies, local authorities and the wider public, have agreed to defer formal consultation until the New Year.

There are several reasons why we believe it would be beneficial to wait. Mostly, we want to make sure we have time to listen properly before finalising proposals for changing the health system. The views that we have gained so far through our process of co-designing consultation with key stakeholders is proving invaluable.

We want to build a really rich picture of how health services could be so in future. This is not just about hospitals, it is about strengthening community services and making a range of urgent care much more convenient for patients. We want to make sure our consultation plans meet the expectations of patients, the public and our statutory consultees, the overview and scrutiny committees.

We appreciate that the continuing uncertainty for staff and patients is unsettling but feel that it is most important to have the right proposals for a healthy health service with genuine options for consultation. Developing these in partnership is vital.
