A private hospital in Knowsley which was told to improve by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) claims inspectors were looking in a “decommissioned room” when they found damp, dust and out-of-date medicine.
In an inspection report published earlier this week about Aset Hospital in Whiston, inspectors noted “visible damp”, dust on an extraction grill and medicine past its use-by date were all observed during their visit in December last year.
However, a spokesperson for the cosmetic surgery hospital has claimed the issues were found in a room that was not being used and had been put out of action ahead of building maintenance.
