MacKinnon Memorial Hospital
Unannounced inspection
Inspection Date: 10 May 2012
MacKinnon Memorial Hospital is located in Broadford, Isle of
Skye. It contains 20 inpatient beds and provides services to the
Skye and Lochalsh area. The service which the hospital provides
include an accident and emergency department, maternity and general
medical.
We previously inspected MacKinnon Memorial Hospital in July
2011. That inspection resulted in two requirements and five
recommendations. The inspection report is available on the
Healthcare Improvement Scotland website http://www.healthcareimprovementscotland.org/HEI.aspx
.
We carried out an unannounced inspection to MacKinnon Memorial
Hospital on Thursday 10 May 2012.
We assessed the hospital against the NHS Quality Improvement
Scotland (NHS QIS) healthcare associated infection (HAI) standards
and inspected the following areas:
- accident and emergency (A&E)
- general ward, and
- maternity unit.
The improvement action plan for this inspection has now been
removed from the Healthcare Improvement Scotland website, as the
inspection took place more than 16 weeks ago. Please contact
NHS Highland for further information on progress against this
action plan.
