PATIENTS are invited to have their say on hospital services.

Halton and Warrington Hospitals are being inspected by healthcare watchdog the Care Quality Commission (CQC) from March 6 for three to four days.

The CQC is an independent regulator of health and social care in England.

They monitor, inspect and regulate services to make sure they meet fundamental standards of quality and safety and publish their findings, including performance ratings to help people choose their care.

A stall manned by two CQC inspectors will be set up at both hospitals for people to say what they think about the health services they have experienced.

Inspectors will be at Warrington Hospital on Tuesday, February 21 from 12.30pm to 3.30pm and at Halton Hospital on Wednesday, February 22 from 1.30pm to 3pm.
