HSJ Podcast: The RAAC scandal and what it means for the NHS

2023-09-08T05:01:00+01:00

No comments

NHS trusts have been told by the government to carry out urgent risk assessments if they have a certain type of lightweight concrete in their buildings.

This follows multiple school closures because of safety risks around “reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete”. We discuss the impact these safety fears are having on the NHS, why hospitals aren’t also being shut down and what this means for the New Hospitals Programme.

With Zoe Tidman, Nick Carding and Annabelle Collins.
