After the original Enter and View visit to Suffolk Ward at Chase Farm Hospital in March 2015, Healthwatch Enfield and Healthwatch Barnet, returned to Suffolk Ward, in June 2016, to follow up the observations and recommendations made after their first visit.

This was an un-announced E&V visit as part of a planned strategy to look at a range of care and nursing homes within Barnet to obtain a better idea of the quality of care provided. This visit was undertaken to review the recommendations the Team made at the previous visit.
