WQ.300/2022
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR INFRASTRUCTURE BY DEPUTY L.V. FELTHAM OF ST. HELIER CENTRAL
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 14th NOVEMBER 2022 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 21st NOVEMBER 2022
Question
“In relation to the Our Hospital project, will the Minister detail –
- how clinical requirements were considered in the recent review; and
- whether the previously approved clinical requirements for the new hospital will now need to be reviewed or revised in light of the outcome of the recent review?”
Answer
- During the Review of Our Hospital Project over 20 interviews were held with the Review Team with over 60 stakeholders, of which approximately 21 were from a clinical background and provided evidence on the requirements to the review. In addition, the Medical Director for Health and Community Services reviewed the draft report and provided feedback from a clinical perspective. The review concluded that all of the options investigated are able to deliver safe clinical and operational services.
- The previously approved functional brief for the Our Hospital project will need to be reviewed or revised in due course, to provide assurance of an appropriate split of services over sites. However, the fundamental collation of requirements and agreement to standards will not need to be revisited, as these have recently been established and this work can be reused and reapplied to a hybrid, phased option. The Minister for Health and Social Services will work closely with the Minister for Infrastructure on this.
