Extra nurses and an experienced assistant director of nursing are being deployed to Stafford Hospital to boost frontline staff and further improve patient care as part of a package of measures in the wake of Health Secretary Alan Johnson’s response to recent reports into the standard of care at the Trust.
s well as increasing nursing numbers and strengthening leadership, a night matron will be recruited to ensure high standards of care are maintained at night and a professional development nurse will be brought in to support nurses’ training and development needs.
