The coroner’s concerns
– (1) Discharged by the gastroenterology team without referral to the cardiology team as to whether the discharge was appropriate. (2) Discharged without a cardiology clinic appointment or plan to be later rereferred. (3) There was no document exchange or communication between the gastroenterology team and the cardiology team meaning that Ms Silcock was then forgotten about. (4) No investigation by Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust as to what went wrong and why between the treating teams and their respective administration teams.
