Emergency Department attendance records broken. At one stage, the department saw 
one patient
arriving every four minutes - an unprecedented level of demand and a record we have started to see
broken each year.
 
 
Industrial action – 
This impacted the nursing, midwifery, allied health professional, ambulance, and
medical workforces, and junior doctors were involved in a 72-hour walkout in March 2023.
 
 
Extreme heat – 
Very high temperatures experienced during the heatwave in the summer of 2022
also provided challenges to staff who endeavoured to make life as comfortable as possible for our
patients.

Staff continued to work exceptionally hard to reduce the waiting times for patients requiring
elective (planned) treatment, including operations, following the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
The post-COVID-19 pandemic influenced backlog continued to impact planned care across the NHS
during 2022/23.
 
As a result, the constitutional standard for consultant-led Referral to Treatment (RTT) waiting times
of 92% within 18 weeks was not deemed viable or realistic for the NHS to achieve during this period
of recovery. The Trust’s RTT performance as of March 2023 was 47.3%.
 
In emergency care, the Trust’s performance in relation to the four-hour target was 79.1%,
against a target of 95%.
 
At the end of March 2023, the Trust reported zero patients waiting more than two years for
treatment, and twenty patients waiting more than 18 months, reflecting steady and sensitively
managed recovery.
 
 
Following an inspection of services in March
2023, MKUH Maternity Services were rated as
‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
 
The domain of ‘Is the service well-led?’ was rated
as outstanding, while ‘Is the service safe?’ was
rated as good.
 
The inspection found leaders and staff actively
and openly engaged with women and birthing
people, staff, equality groups, the public and local
organisations to plan and manage services.
 
The service continues to develop and evolve to
meet the increasing health demands of our
growing city.
