Address & description
Wansbeck General Hospital is a bright modern hospital situated just off the A197, on the outskirts of Ashington, Northumberland. Completed in 2003 the hospital has 15 wards and 429 beds for specialities such as: general medicine, surgery, orthopaedics, day surgery, maternity and gynaecology.
The hospital employs around 2,000 staff and deals with 24,000 inpatients, 21,000 outpatients, 14,000 day cases and 36,000 emergency attendees each year.
Wansbeck was ranked as the top hospital in the North East region for its provision of stroke care in a national audit carried out by the Royal College of Physicians. The unit at Wansbeck combines acute and rehabilitation care and is one of the Trusts three dedicated stroke units with the others located at Hexham and North Tyneside Hospitals.
The hospital has a large and modern maternity unit offering a flexible approach to childbirth. The unit provides both obstetric and midwifery care with a consultant-led service for women who require medical attention. Spacious delivery rooms with en-suite facilities provide privacy and comfort at all times. A birthing pool offers a more relaxed environment for women who wish to have a water birth. There is also a 24-hour epidural service to ensure women receive the pain relief they want or need. Wansbeck is also home to Northumbria Healthcare's award winning Special Care Baby Unit for premature babies and those who need extra care after birth.
A recently opened MRI suite has reduced waiting times and provides comprehensive diagnostic examinations for an extra 6,000 patients per year. Modern MRI scans can be used to help the early detection of heart disease, cancers and neurological conditions without the need for surgery.
A new method of operating on patients with hip and knee problems has cut recovery time in half. The fast-track surgery allows some patients to walk out of hospital 24 hours after a knee operation. For hip patients the length of time they need to stay in hospital has been reduced from five days to three with this new system that uses a spinal, rather than a general anaesthetic.
In July 2009 the National Patient Safety Agency awarded the hospital a score of 'Excellent' for its environment, food, and privacy and dignity for patients. Nutrition nurses work with Age Concern to make sure patients get good nutritional care including protected mealtimes.
The hospital has a main restaurant for meals and two coffee shops, offering a range of sandwiches and refreshments for visitors.
In relation to Northumbria NHS Trust's hip replacement revision rate Dr Foster has been informed by the Trust that the information held on SUS may not be factually correct. The Trust has told Dr Foster that 51 operations were classed as "hip revisions" when in fact only 39 should have been so recorded. Dr Foster has not been able to verify these assertions but is happy to record this statement at the request of the Trust

Waiting times
How long am I likely to have to wait for my operation?
For this procedure, this graph shows the average time in days that patients waited for their first outpatient appointment and their subsequent admission to hospital.
When referred to hospital by their GP, a patient's first appointment will be as an outpatient.
The days between referral and attending a first outpatient appointment are known as an outpatient wait (the yellow block in the graph). Outpatient appointments give doctors the opportunity to examine the patient. If a doctor decides that surgery is necessary, they will recommend that the patient is given a date to attend hospital as an inpatient - they make a decision to admit.
The elapsed time (in days) between the date of the decision to admit and the patient's admission to hospital is called an inpatient wait (the blue block in the graph) The red line across the graph shows the average total wait (both outpatient and inpatient) for this operation in the NHS in England.
Compare your chosen hospital provider with the five nearest providers performing this procedure. Read more about this indicator.
The Department of Health measures waiting time using a different methodology, 18 Weeks.
Inpatient rate
Will I need to stay in hospital overnight?
- Less than expected
- As expected
- More than expected
- Sample too small
Less complex operations may not require the patient to stay in hospital overnight. Patients who are treated and return home on the same day, as planned, are called day cases; those who stay in hospital overnight are called inpatients. Whether you are treated as an inpatient or a day case will be determined by a number of factors, including your age and general health.
For a given operation, statistical models enable us to estimate the number of inpatients at a given NHS Trust. By dividing the actual number of inpatients by our expected number we create a ratio (shown on the graph with a coloured circle).
A confidence interval (the vertical blue box) allows us to measure the trust's performance in relation to a national standard. If the confidence interval straddles the red horizontal line on the graph (100), the Trust is in line with national performance - it is performing as expected. Where the confidence interval is wholly above or below the national benchmark, the trust experienced significantly more or less inpatients than we would expect.

Readmission rate
What's the risk of me having to return to hospital urgently?
- Less than expected
- As expected
- More than expected
A readmission occurs when a patient is admitted to hospital as an emergency within one month of being sent home. While the factors involved can be varied and complex, readmission is widely accepted as an indicator of the quality of hospital care.
For a given operation, statistical models enable us to estimate the number of readmissions at a given NHS Trust. By dividing the number of observed readmissions by the actual number we create a ratio (shown on the graph with a coloured circle).
A confidence interval (the vertical blue box) allows us to measure the trust's performance in relation to a national standard. If the confidence interval straddles the red horizontal line on the graph (100), the Trust is in line with national performance - it is performing as expected. But where the confidence interval is wholly above or below the red horizontal line, the trust experienced significantly more or less readmissions than expected.

Infection control
Tackling MRSA and Clostridium Difficile (C. Difficile) is a major issue. The steps that hospitals take to contain these infections are known as Infection Control.
The incidence of these infections is measured with a rate. For MRSA, the number of cases of MRSA blood infection reported by the trust is counted per 100,000 bed days (a bed day is defined as one patient occupying a hospital bed for one night), for C. Difficile, the number of cases of C. Difficile infection reported by the trust, is counted per 100,000 bed days. Cases in patients less than two years of age are not reported. These figures include both emergency and elective patients (patients who planned their treatment in advance).

C. Difficile
Tackling MRSA and Clostridium Difficile (C. Difficile) is a major issue. The steps that hospitals take to contain these infections are known as Infection Control.
The incidence of these infections is measured with a rate. For C. Difficile it is the number of cases of C. Difficile infection reported per 100,000 bed days for cases apportioned to the trust; a bed day is defined as one patient occupying a hospital bed for one night. This figure includes both emergency and elective patients (patients who planned their treatment in advance).

Hospital Mortality Ratio
What is this trust's overall level of mortality?
- Less than expected
- As expected
- More than expected
For those diagnoses that account for the majority (80%) of deaths in hospital, the Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio (HSMR) measures the number of patients dying at a trust compared with a national benchmark.
Statistical models enable us to estimate the number of deaths at a trust. By dividing the number of actual deaths by the expected number, our modelled number, we create a ratio (shown on the graph with a coloured circle). Our model accounts for factors that can affect mortality but are beyond the control of the trust, for example, a patient's age.
Control limits (the vertical blue box) measure a trust's performance in relation to a national standard. If the ratio is within the vertical blue box it is consistent with national performance the trust is performing as expected. A ratio outside the blue box is inconsistent with national performance.
We used data from the last financial year for the one year HSMR; the three year HSMR is calculated with data from the last three financial years. HSMR trend shows the HSMR for each of the last seven financial years, benchmarked against the 2002/03 model. Compare your chosen hospital provider with the five nearest providers performing this procedure. Read more about this indicator.
HSMR (3 year)
Control limits (the vertical blue box) measure a trust's performance in relation to a national standard. If the ratio is within the vertical blue box it is consistent with national performance - the trust is performing as expected. A ratio outside the blue box is inconsistent with national performance.
The three year HSMR is calculated with data from the last three financial years (2007/08, 2008/09, 2009/10). This wider pool of data, three years, gives a broader picture of a trust's performance over time.
