Following the publication today (9 September 2025) of the NHS Oversight Framework, Hannah Coffey, Chief Executive at North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust which runs Peterborough City, Hinchingbrooke and Stamford and Rutland Hospitals, said: “We welcome the transparency that publishing hospitals’ performance data brings for our patients.
"While we are extremely disappointed to have seen a decline in our rating during the 1 April to 30 June period, we know a major factor in the downward trend is primarily as a result of not being in financial balance.
“Being in Segment 4 of the National Oversight Framework means that our Trust will be under closer scrutiny for performance and will benefit from additional support to accelerate our improvement work.
“Over the past six months, we have seen some good results from specific patient-focussed improvement programmes, including significantly reducing waiting times for elective and urgent or emergency care. We are continuing with this work to give our patients the best possible care and experience.
“We are committed to maintaining good financial discipline to provide the best care for the best value across our hospitals.
“I am incredibly grateful for the determination and dedication our staff continue to show in support of our improvement programme.”
