Mental health services for children and young people at a hospital have been criticised following a watchdog inspection. Care for children and young people at Cheadle Royal Hospital, also known as the Priory Hospital Cheadle Royal, has been rated 'inadequate' following an inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
Hospital bosses said they were 'disappointed' at the rating, which they insisted 'does not accurately reflect the quality of... child and adolescent mental health services at Cheadle'.
"We have disputed the factual accuracy of many aspects of the report," they added in a statement.
