Transforming Community Services - Changes to community, mental health and addiction services in Wolverhampton.
Under the Government's requirements for the reshaping of the NHS, all Primary Care Trusts have been required to transfer their directly delivered patients' services to provider organisations by 1st April 2011.
In Wolverhampton, this means a change in management for more than 2,000 staff. Although in the vast majority of cases you will see the same staff, working from the same clinics and offices, and receive your care in the same place, we know that some changes in the coming months are inevitable.
Information about services will be provided on the websites of the two receiving organisations - the Royal Wolverhampton Hospitals NHS Trust for community health services and West Park Hospital, at http://www.royalwolverhamptonhospitals.nhs.uk/ - and Black Country Partnership NHS Foundation Trust for mental health services, Penn Hospital, addiction services and learning disability teams at http://www.bcpft.nhs.uk/.
For services remaining in the PCT, the Black Country Cluster has been formed. The Cluster was formally established on 1 April 2011 and is made up of four PCT's (Wolverhampton, Dudley, Walsall and Sandwell).Click here for more information.
