Salisbury District Hospital Maternity Services rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission

The Maternity Team at Salisbury Hospital is celebrating after receiving a 'Good' rating from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) on Friday 14th February.

Chief Nurse Judy Dyos said, “We are incredibly proud of everybody in our Maternity Team. Following an unannounced inspection last September the CQC have graded the services we provide as ‘Good’. I would like to thank everyone in the maternity team for the hard work and commitment they show day in, day out.  It is fantastic news that parents said they felt safe in our care and felt able to raise concerns with our staff.”

Director of Midwifery Vicki Marston said, “We are absolutely thrilled to receive an overall rating of good for our Maternity services following a CQC inspection in September 2024. Staff have worked with commitment and enthusiasm to make improvements to the services offered to women and families since the last CQC inspection in 2021 and I’m incredibly proud and grateful to the whole team.

"The rating received is testament to their hard work and dedication to improve care for women, people using the service and their babies, and we are pleased that the inspectors highlighted the widespread improvements in the quality of care provided at Salisbury and have rated Maternity services as 'Good'."

The report is published on CQC’s website.
