The coroner’s concerns

This report was published as a scan, so its text was read automatically. Check the wording against the original before you quote it.

— 1. There was no process in place for risk assessment plans to be completed when a resident's needs changed from care to nursing needs and a bed was awaited. 2. The District Nursing Team were unaware of the change in status and there was no system in place to involve them in discussions. Patient records completed by the District Nursing Team lacked detail and were not completed in the required timescales. There was no continuity of care provided by the District Nursing Team. There was little evidence of communication and information sharing between the care home and the District Nursing Team The Care Home notes were lacking in detail A suitable nursing home placement could not be identified once it had been agreed that the Care Home was no longer the best place to meet the needs of Mr Davies 8. Advice was not sought by the District Nurses when they had difficulties examining Mr Davies e NO ge 9. The correct procedure was not followed on previous occasions when a trigger point was reached in relation to pressure relieving strategies.
