Senior councillors message to health bosses
Health bosses and politicians should be ‘screaming from the rooftops’ over the £90million under-investment in Greater Manchester’s mental health services. That was the verdict of a senior Salford councillor Jim King who was addressing Salford’s health and adults scrutiny panel.
Responding, deputy chief operating officer of the GMMHT, said: “We are working very closely with the Greater Manchester Integrated Care Board . There is a national standard expected across the country.Director of commissioning for Salford city council Judd Skelton added: “The £90m differential is longstanding and it’s across Greater Manchester.
GMMH has nearly 100,000 patients and 6,700 staff. More than 8,000 students have used its recovery academy over the last 10 years. The trust has been subject to a series of scandals, including young people dying on mental health wards, followed by admissions medical notes were doctored; harrowing treatment of vulnerable people at inpatient facilities caught on camera; and staff in racism rows.
“We have a very strict management taking place in terms of our budget,” he said. “It’s not been very helpful that our hospital is under strict management by the NHS. “But we have very strict management taking place in terms of budget, and the authorisation that I suspect you have to have before spending something out of the ordinary. And it’s not been very helpful. Our hospital in particular is under strict management on its finances from the NHS.”
