Foundation Trust

As a provider of high security mental health care it was directly accountable to the Secretary of State for Health, not to Monitor. For this reason it was described as an Equivalent NHS foundation trust, one of three. The other two are Mersey Care NHS Trust and West London Mental Health NHS Trust. It was awarded Foundation Trust status in March 2015.[1]

In October 2013 the Trust was asked by the Care Quality Commission to assist in rehousing residents of failing nursing homes in Nottingham.[2]

Controversies

In 2008 the Trust had to defend legal challenge to the smoke-free legislation for mental health establishments (G & B v Nottinghamshire healthcare NHS Trust, N v Secretary of State for Health). Three patients at the Rampton Hospital brought a case arguing that their human rights were violated by the smoking ban as the Rampton was essentially their home and the ban was incompatible with Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Smoking outside could not reasonably be arranged and the ban meant there could be no designated rooms for smoking. The claims were dismissed and the patients appealed the decision to the Court of Appeal, which also dismissed their claim. The Courts ruled that it was legitimate to restrict a person's Article 8 rights for the protection of health.[3]

An investigation by the BBC’s Newsnight programme found half of 100 reviews of the trust on website Patient Opinion had been written by staff. The trust claimed that staff were writing on behalf of vulnerable patients – such as the elderly or those with learning difficulties – who would otherwise have been unable to comment.

Kier Group has a contract to deliver the future estates strategy; the first phase is the delivery of a new children's project providing adolescent in-patient beds, a psychiatric intensive care unit and an in-patient perinatal unit.[4]

It was named by the Health Service Journal as one of the top hundred NHS trusts to work for in 2015. At that time it had 7780 full-time equivalent staff and a sickness absence rate of 5.58%. 63% of staff recommend it as a place for treatment and 55% recommended it as a place to work.[5]
