HEALTH bosses say they ?hang their heads in shame? at the county?s ?unacceptable? bed-blocking figures but have launched a ?10m bid to tackle the problem.
The county regained its place as the worst in England for bed-blocking in July, with 148 people experiencing delayed transfers ? a rise from 128 in June.
Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (OCCG) has launched a bid for ?10m of NHS England cash to help tackle winter pressures, including bed-blocking, later this year.
Although it was revealed at a public meeting yesterday, OCCG last night refused to reveal any more details about the bid or how the money will be spent.
