NHS BARNSLEY
The Assistant Chief Operating Officer – Corporate
Governance and Patient Safety referred to the
information relating to health care acquired infections.
Whilst the PCO total target for C.difficile infections in
2011/12 could not be met the Committee noted that
BHNFT would meet its own target.
For 2012/13 the North of England SHA had set an
unchanged target for C.difficile; the target for MRSA
would be zero.
In conclusion the Chief Operating Officer confirmed
that overall, NHS Barnsley was on track to meet its
performance targets for 2011/12. This reflected the
strength of the organisation and demonstrated that the
PCT was able to effectively manage performance. The
Chairman endorsed this view and expressed
appreciation on behalf of the Committee for the work of
all staff in the organisation.
