Does CSUs' closure reflect their performance?
Source: A Moore
The failure of these two CSUs must surely be a reflection of how poorly they performed over the past few years? The organisational ethos many CSUs inherited from PCTs, and the view that they were there to ‘do it to the GPs’, was contrary to the situation that the GPs were now in charge.
That the NWCSU also won the Plain English Campaigns ‘Bull’ award in 2013-14 was indicative of an unreal mindset.
There won’t be many tears shed to see some CSUs disappear – it’s just a shame for their best staff who might suffer.
