Our view of the service
St Andrews Healthcare is an independent organisation that provides mental health care across 3 sites in England. We visited the Northampton site to check on the quality of care provided. We carried out an on site assessment of 2 wards within the learning disability and autism division. We visited Hawkins ward which is a 15 bedded ward that provides care for males with a learning disability in a medium secure setting. We also visited Sycamore ward which is a 10 bedded ward that provides care for females with a learning disability in a low secure setting. We carried out an onsite assessment on 22 and 23 April 2024 and asked for, and reviewed data related to the assessment. We had received concerns around the safety of patients, specifically around staffing and observations.
