The coroner’s concerns

(1) The Tissue Viability Nurse and District Nurses are a part of the same community team but no steps had been taken to attend to the management of Anita Loi’s leg wound despite repeated referrals by the GP and a call to the community team by the family. (2) On 11 December 2019 the GP invited the District Nurses Team and Tissue Viability Nurses Team to attend a meeting at the surgery with the practice clinicians to review unexpected deaths and to discuss this case. Neither team attended the meeting and to date have not engaged with the GP in relation to this death despite a chasing letter. (3) whether there are appropriate policies, procedures protocols in place for the referral of patients to the service, and the response to such referrals
