To support and inform these Plans all the partner agencies and departments involved in the Partnership were asked to provide information on their projects and/or investments in each DEA under three headings (where applicable): ➢ Support of a social nature. ➢ Physical projects. ➢ Economic support and initiatives. This document brings all the information provided by the community planning partners together in one place. Community groups in the two DEAs are invited to scroll through the document to obtain details of what the agencies and departments are doing and plan to do and to draw on this information when contributing their views on what the priorities in the Locality Plans should be. Workshops for groups have been organised to bring people together across each DEA to contribute to preparation of the Plans. 3 Locality Planning for Lisburn South and Castlereagh East DEAs Belfast Health and Social Care Trust YOUR AGENCY: CONTACT PERSON Belfast Health and Social Care Trust Laurence Ferguson / Bryan Nelson PROJECT/INVESTMENT TIMESCALE ALL OF DEA: To specific areas, (in years) Yes/No communities, individuals, or families?

This has been my first full year as Chairman, and it has been a year of landmark achievements. It’s encouraging to have so much progress to report in the current difficult economic climate as we continue to develop and further modernise our services. In Mental Health we have seen particular advances to aid clients to live in their own communities. Despite unprecedented pressures in the area of safeguarding children, I have been impressed by the diligence and commitment of staff in children’s services. We have opened the new £64m Downe Hospital, a state of the art enhanced local hospital which provides a wonderful environment for both patients and staff. Moving an entire hospital full of patients requires planning with military precision, and staff are to be commended for their professionalism in achieving the transition. The midwifery led maternity unit at the Downe opened some months later with three births in the first week, the first stand alone unit of its kind in Ireland.

RQIA’s reviews and inspections are designed to identify best practice, to highlight gaps or shortfalls in services requiring improvement and to protect the public interest. Our Acute Hospital Inspections are carried out by a dedicated team of inspectors, from our Healthcare Team supported by lay assessors and peer reviewers from all trusts who have the relevant experience and knowledge. Our reports are available on the RQIA’s website at www.rqia.org.uk. RQIA wishes to thank those (including patients, their families and HSC staff) who facilitated this inspection through participating in interviews, or providing relevant information. Background In April 2014, the Minister for Health asked RQIA to put in place appropriate arrangements to deliver a rolling programme of unannounced inspections of the quality of services in acute hospitals in Northern Ireland to commence in 2015. In a statement to the Northern Ireland Assembly on 1 July 2014, the Minister indicated that the programme of inspections would focus on a selection of quality indicators that would not be pre-notified to the trusts. No advance warning is provided to trusts as to which sites, or services within a hospital, will be visited as part of an unannounced inspection.
