The Guardian reports that 6 hospital trusts are below fresh scrutiny following NHS information uncovered that they had “increased than anticipated” mortality rates. Healthcare correspondent Denis Campbell writes:
Two of the six, Colchester Hospital University NHS basis trust and East Lancashire Hospitals NHS trust, are already in unique measures following NHS medical director Professor Sir Bruce Keogh’s evaluation final year into 14 trusts with apparently high death prices.
Yet another of the six, Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS foundation believe in, was also amongst the 14 but was not amid the 11 place into special measures.
The NHS’s Overall health and Social Care Information Centre (HSCIC) on Wednesday explained that people three, plus Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS foundation trust, Aintree University Hospital NHS basis trust in Liverpool and Wye Valley NHS trust in Herefordshire, all had unusually high death costs in 2012-13, as judged by the summary hospital-level mortality indicator.
Elsewhere, the Independent reports that the Royal Institute of British Architects has located a clear correlation in between the sum of green room, density of housing in urban locations, and the overall overall health of the regional population. Justine Womack, a public overall health specialist at Public Well being England, wrote for the network on a similar theme earlier this month when she referred to as for a “responsibility deal” for the created setting.

Creating for the network nowadays, Ben Nunn and Tom Sackville argue that gang violence is a public health problem, and appear at whether or not well being and wellbeing boards are contemplating gang and youth violence in the organizing of local well being solutions. They write:
The expense of violence to the NHS stands at £2.9bn a year (£200m more than the complete public wellness price range that was transferred to regional authorities this year).
In 2010-11, a lot more than 189,000 men and women had been admitted to A&E because of violent incidents some hospitals reported that 9% of all emergency admissions were linked to knife incidents.
The government has sought to reply to this challenge. 1 of the central tenets of its reaction to the 2011 disturbances was to move the situation of gang and youth violence away from currently being solely a problem for criminal justice companies, and in the direction of the wider realm of public well being.

Cristina Odone also looks at emergency care, writing for the Telegraph that bad out of hrs service has spawned a culture of ‘go very first to A&E’.
Nigel Edwards blogs for the Nuffield Trust on hospital organisation in Europe. He writes:
… the Uk public sector consists of stand-alone hospitals or reasonably tiny hospital groups in close proximity. France and Germany and to a lesser extent some other nations have big chains or groups of hospitals that have a single management and a typical operating model. Hospitals not part of these groups increasingly have to think about partnering and networking with other hospitals.
All countries recognise that hospitals are not able to be planned as stand-alone institutions, and in numerous EU nations there are regional structures that take obligation for supplying this essential oversight.
… Whilst there is a good deal of rhetoric about building transformative new models of care, in the Uk the strategy is usually just to make the outdated model of hospital provision bigger (and even more away). A amount of the approaches being produced in the rest of Europe challenge some of the assumptions we have about hospitals and there is much more for us to discover.
And Anne Benson writes for the King’s Fund site about what mindfulness has to offer overall health and social care.
