"This mortality measure is more up-to-date than the SHMI and it shows the trust has made a gradual but significant improvement over the past year.

"We are pleased to have this chance to learn from others through the Keogh review and find out more what more we can do to improve the quality of care that we provide."

    “And another Amy - bad day at the office especially when one story can get rolled into one post.”

    “Instead of being so smug she should put some rubber gloves on and clean the wards. Day surgery would be a good place to start, it's filthy!”
