It’s Impossible for Trusts to Remain Open

A 150-year old private trust has come forward to announce that they are going to be closing. 280 staff are going to be let go and jobs are also going to be shut down as well. They have stated that it is nearly impossible for them to balance the costs and that they are very sad about everything that has happened. They have also stated that their resources are running out, and that they are not able to continue this for much longer. They have been providing patients with a high level of healthcare since the year 1872 and also have 30 hospital beds. They have 50 bed-nursing sections and they even operate a day care service. They help over 250 people every single day and the work that they do really does not go unnoticed. They have stated that they are sad to see this happen, but they just cannot continue anymore. Those who operate in homecare or even in private nursing will know more than anyone how devastating this can be, but things like this can and do happen.

The board have thanked all of their patient and hard-working staff, and they have also stressed that the place will always be of great importance to them. They are going to have a 45 day wait which is going to be surrounded with consultations. They are going to have to try and deliver a good quality of care by utilising other methods and hospitals, but this is not going to be easy with the NHS being under so much strain. They have stated that they are in very close contact with the people over at All Hallows and that they are exploring the possibility of leasing everything to the new provider.
