The Care Quality Commission (CQC) in its 2020 Adult inpatient survey as regulator of our hospitals finds the discharge of patients remains seriously unsatisfactory. See https://www.cqc.org.uk/publications/surveys/adult-inpatient-survey-2020 . This report has a huge amount of details about the performance of our three Mid & South Essex acute hospitals and we will ask their Board about how this will be used by them and what improvements they are making as a result.
