Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust (18 012 769a)
Statement Upheld Community hospital services 03-Mar-2020
Summary: Mrs D complained about physiotherapy provided by an NHS Trust to her husband when he was a patient in hospital. She also complained about the communication relating to discharge planning from two NHS Trusts and the Council. She said the Council failed to investigate her concerns in line with its safeguarding procedures. The Ombudsmen found the two NHS Trusts failed to communicate properly with the complainant but apologised and made improvements. One of the NHS Trust failed to follow up on a community rehabilitation referral and this is likely to have impacted on Mrs D’s husband’s wellbeing. The Council completed a safeguarding investigation but took too long to tell the complaint the outcome. The Council and the NHS Trusts have agreed to the Ombudsmen’s recommendations and will apologise, make acknowledgement payments and issue reminders to their staff to ensure good practice.
