The health watchdog will continue to monitor the service to ensure these are implemented.
Deirdre Fowler, chief nurse at UHBW, said the trust accepts there are areas in medical care it needs to improve and is fully committed to making the ‘necessary improvements.’
She confirmed the hospital has faced staffing issues for many years, but said it has already made progress by recruiting a new cohort of nurses, who are due to start in the next six months.
She said: “While we expect to reduce our vacancies from current levels, we are block booking temporary staff in the meantime so that the same professionals provide continuity of care.

Cathy Smith the former Head of Midwifery at Shrewsbury Hospital
Simon Wright left his £160,000 chief executive role with Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital Trust last year amid the investigation into claims that dozens of babies died or suffered brain damage.
He was among several senior staff members at the trust – including its former head of midwifery and director of nursing – to walk into other senior roles following the scandal.
Just months after allegedly being pushed out as chief executive by NHS bosses, Mr Wright, 54, took up a job with a US healthcare firm which previously worked with his NHS trust.
Richard Stanton, who exposed failings at Shrewsbury and Telford after the death of his newborn daughter Kate Stanton-Davies in 2009, said Mr Wright had been ‘rewarded for failure’.
