Urgent! – These are the beds to replace OUR LMH beds!!!!
This is a report by inspectors about Stadium Court in Cobridge where the North Staffordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) have commissioned a whole floor to house people who should be looked after in the 160+ community hospital beds which they have closed. We have stated throughout our campaign that care in nursing homes is inferior…
