Dear Dr Mukherjee,

Further to your Freedom of Information request (our reference 264), under
Section 16 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our duty to provide
advice and assistance, we would be grateful if you could clarify the scope
of your request.

Is this question about Ealing patients relating to residents of LB of
Ealing or patients registered with an Ealing GP so that Ealing CCG is
their responsible commissioner?

Please note our response is on hold until we receive this clarification
from you.

Kind regards,

Dear Dr Mukherjee,

Thank you for your FOI request.  Please see the response to 264/2021
below.

Dear West London NHS Trust,

Since the closure of Hope/Horizon ward in March 2020 ( at the beginning of
pandemic) till date, how many Ealing patients have been admitted as an
inpatient in psychiatry wards at

a) Lakeside Mental Health Unit  and

b) Hammersmith and Fulham Mental Health Unit?

c) Other out of the Trust beds.

Please include if any of these are private beds.

Response:

The two tables below show the Ealing resident patients admitted to beds in
H&F and Hounslow before, during and after the first lockdown, until the
date the request was received.

There have been no Ealing resident patients admitted to the private sector
due to a lack of available beds.

The beds in the Wolsey Wing in Ealing are currently suspended. There is a
plan to undertake enhanced engagement before a decision is made about
closure”.
