Our view of the service

Nuffield Health Leeds is an independent hospital which is part of the Nuffield Health corporate group. We carried out an unannounced responsive on-site inspection of surgery services on 10 and 11 September 2024, followed by a further day on site on 18 September. Services are offered to both NHS and privately funded patients. We reviewed all quality statements for the safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led key questions. The overall rating for this service is good. Ratings for safe changed from good to requires improvement. Effective stayed the same as the last inspection. Caring, responsive and well led changed from outstanding to good. We found 5 breaches of regulation in person centred care, safe care and treatment, need for consent, premises and equipment and good governance.

People's experience of this service

People we spoke to during our inspection visits spoke highly of the service and the care they had received. However, we did not always see full involvement of people accessing the service for learning and improvement work.
