Monitoring arrangements for chaplaincy services 2009/10
Dear Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust,
For 2009/10 I would be grateful if you could provide me with the following information about the way in which your chaplaincy service is monitored.
1. Does the Trust monitor the hours worked in return for payment? I would be grateful for a copy of any information that the Trust holds on file for 2009/10 that shows this monitoring.
2. Does the Trust assure itself that the service provided is in line with S. 3b of the NHS Constitution in relation to equality legislation? I would be grateful for a copy of any information that the Trust holds on file for 2009/10 or earlier, that shows how the Trust ensures that the service is delivered in line with the NHS Constitution commitment to equality (particularly gender and LGBT equality).
3. Does the Trust check whether patients are satisfied with the chaplaincy service? I would be grateful for a copy of any information that the Trust holds on file for 2009/10, or any earlier period, that shows how patient satisfaction with chaplaincy services is measured.
4. Finally, I would also be grateful to know how the Trust is assured that all staff delivering chaplaincy services have CRB checks held on file.
Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter. It is very much appreciated.
Yours faithfully,
Robert Christian
