Heddiw, rwyf wedi rhoi gwybod i’r bwrdd fy mod yn gweithredu mesurau arbennig, a hynny ar unwaith. Daw’r penderfyniad sylweddol hwn ar ôl i’r grŵp teirochrog, sef Arolygiaeth Gofal Iechyd Cymru, Archwilio Cymru a swyddogion Llywodraeth Cymru, gyfarfod ym mis Tachwedd 2022 a mis Ionawr 2023 i drafod yn benodol bryderon am ddarpariaeth gwasanaethau, ansawdd a diogelwch gofal ac effeithiolrwydd sefydliadol ym Mwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr.
I have today informed the board I am taking special measures with immediate effect. This significant decision comes after the tripartite group of Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, Audit Wales and Welsh Government officials met in November 2022 and January 2023 to specifically discuss concerns about the service delivery, quality and safety of care and organisational effectiveness at Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board.
