Delays in finding new ward is impacting care for men at Northampton mental health hospital
A mental health ward for men is struggling to properly care for its patients because of delays in moving to a new home, inspectors have found.
The adult males of Foster Ward, at Northampton's St Andrew's Hospital, are set to move out of its Grade-II listed building into new accommodation in December this year.
But while leaders and managers focus on the move ahead, the healthcare watchdog has accused the ward of allowing the quality of care to slide. Northampton Chronicle and Echo
