Our view of the service
We carried out an assessment of medical care services only at Warwick Hospital. We inspected the service to carry out a comprehensive inspection and follow up a S29A Warning Notice served in March 2025 in relation to 3 breaches of regulations in relation to safeguarding, safe care and treatment and governance. This inspection was unannounced and was carried out on 14, 15 and 16 July 2026, by a team of inspectors and specialist advisors.
South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust provides acute hospital and community health services for approximately half a million people across Warwickshire, and young people and family services in Coventry and Solihull. Community inpatient care is provided at Stratford-upon-Avon Hospital and Royal Leamington Spa Rehabilitation Hospital. Ellen Badger Hospital has recently been redeveloped to provide outpatient services for the trust and includes space for community partners to deliver wellbeing services and activities.
We found breaches of the regulations in relation to safe care and treatment. We have requested an action plan to show how the service will meet the breaches of regulation, this will be requested upon publication of the final report.
