“Significant progress has been made since my previous visit to write and implement a post-inspection action plan. Key priorities are based on the inspection report and supplemented by other actions that senior leaders identify as requiring improvement. The post-inspection action plan is detailed, concise and manageable as a working document and it should prove easy for managers to continue to monitor the actions set within it and their impact.”
