Our view of the service

This was a service assessment of surgery services only. Please see the summaries below for surgery. The location rating of ‘insufficient evidence to rate’ is stated as we have not assessed all the core services for Good Hope Hospital, and we cannot therefore rate the location overall. 

Good Hope Hospital is an acute general hospital in Sutton Coldfield. The hospital is part of University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and serves north Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and a large part of south east Staffordshire including Burntwood, Lichfield and Tamworth.

We completed an unannounced assessment of surgery services at this location between 20 and 21 June 2024. Based on information of concern, we looked at specific quality statements in safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led. As this assessment was based on risk, we only completed quality statements which were connected to the areas of concern. 

As a result of our assessment, we issued the trust with a Section 29a Warning Notice as significant improvements were required in relation to governance. The Section 29a Warning Notice has given the trust until 31 December 2024 to rectify the areas for significant improvement we identified.
