It must sit at the heart of what we do, to ensure our teams can continue to rise to the challenges of working in the 21st century NHS, to give our patients the best of both ourselves, and the organisation so many of us are proud to be a part of."

Family reference group: INQUEST
Claire Cox posted an article in Patient stories
INQUEST is a charity providing expertise on state related deaths and their investigation to bereaved people, lawyers, advice and support agencies, the media and parliamentarians. Their specialist casework includes deaths in police and prison custody, immigration detention, mental health settings and deaths involving multi-agency failings or where wider issues of state and corporate accountability are in question. What is the Family Reference Group? The INQUEST Family Reference Group is made up of people directly affected by a contentious death (i.e. in detention/custody, where a state body is involved, or where the facts are disputed). It supports and contributes to INQUEST's work from a family perspective. The reference group brings together a range of experiences, taking into consideration race and gender perspectives, types of deaths across custody, immigration detention and mental health care.- Posted

Content ArticleThe Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch (HSIB) investigated the case study of Martin, a 43-year old inmate, who suffered multiple seizures after his epilepsy medication wasn’t transferred with him to a new prison. Each day around 120 prisoners with ongoing medication needs are moved between jails. Martin’s case is just one example of a serious outcome when medication was missed. Prisoners may also need to be treated in the community at local hospitals, with prison security staff being taken away from planned duties to accompany them.

Content ArticlePrisons and Probation Ombudsman (PPO) Sue McAllister has published the independent investigation into the death of a baby (Baby B) at HMP Styal on 18 June 2020. The PPO was concerned that there were missed opportunities to identify the urgent clinical attention that Ms B, the baby’s mother, needed during that evening. The investigation found gaps in prison nurse training about reproductive health, long-acting reversible contraception and recognition of early labour, and the PPO has made recommendations to remedy these issues in all women’s prisons.
