The coroner’s concerns

– 1. Evidence emerged during the inquest that there was a failure to contact a Doctor and it isn’t clear if this was a system failure through the “nerve centre” system designed to inform the on call Doctor. 2. There were two separate incidents of vomiting and poor record keeping of when these occurred. 3. There was poor communication to the family about the initial fall.
