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. Evidence was heard that Mr Brown’s care records were not reviewed prior to his being seen, which would enable Mr Brown’s full history and risks to be taken into account when assessing him. 2. This is a matter which has been raised with the Trust previously. Staff are expected to read previous records relating to a service user, but this is not always happening. 3. This matter was not considered in the otherwise thorough investigation conducted by the Trust. 6 ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN In my opinion action should be taken to prevent future deaths and | believe your organisation has the power to take such action. 7 YOUR RESPONSE You are under a duty to respond to this report within 56 days of the date of this report, namely by 10 June 2019. I, the coroner, may extend the period.
