Prior to this, the previous meeting took place on Wednesday 20th April at Mid Staffs NHS Trust.
Here is a summary of some of the key the topics which were discussed at this meeting; -
- Enforcement – we will be taking quite an in depth look at the methods and legal issues involved in enforcement at healthcare sites, this will also include an update on the parts of the Protection of Freedoms Bill which will impact on healthcare parking.
- Benchmarking – we will look at the current benchmarking taking place in healthcare parking and discuss how this might be extended to provide those managing parking with useful reference material and ability to measure their performance.
- Good Practice – the Healthcare Facilities Consortium (HFC) has recently launched the Good Practice Guide for parking which they will present and discuss how this ties in with the Hospital Parking Charter launched last year.
- Planning for provision of parking – we will take a look at ways healthcare sites can predict demand for parking and methods of managing peak traffic flows – we also wish to discuss/debate how healthcare sites calculate the ratio of spaces provided for staff/patients/visitors and whether they consider the current ratio is balanced.
