The coroner’s concerns
– 1. There was a lack of professional curiosity by the medical staff in relation to investigating the cause of Mrs Dick’s severe pain in October 2021. 2. There was a failure by the medical staff to adequately assess the sacral pressure ulcer between the 24th October to 29th October 2021, particularly in light of the increasing white cell count and severe pain complained of by Mrs Dick. 3. There was a failure to diagnose Osteomyelitis at Queens Hospital prior to her transfer to Broomfield Hospital on the 29th October 2021. 4. There is no system for mandatory training for clinical staff in relation to pressure ulcers.
