University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust, responsible for hospitals in Morecambe, Lancaster, Furness and Westmorland, still needs to make improvements

This meant that teams were required to improve and correct any concerns raised by inspectors in those services - with detailed action plans and regular updates to the CQC on progress. Following this year’s inspection, the CQC confirmed that all the remaining regulatory conditions had been removed.
“We all know that the NHS has seen significant challenges recently with COVID-19 recovery, various incidences of industrial action, and increasing pressure on services. The fact that our teams have not only managed to maintain safe services during this period, but improve them, is testament to the kind of people we have working here.
