NHS North East & North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (23 006 504b)
Statement Upheld Other 27-Aug-2025
Summary: Mrs A complains about the care and treatment of her mother, Mrs B. She also complains about how long North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (the ICB) took to respond to her complaint. We found the ICB took too long to respond to Mrs A’s complaint which caused her unnecessary distress. I recommended and the ICB agreed to apologise and make a symbolic payment to remedy this injustice. We also found a doctor from St Albans Medical Group changed Mrs B’s medical records after her death. Staff from Wardley Gate Care Centre disposed of used medication in a way which caused Mrs A doubt about whether Mrs B’s medication had been given correctly. However, I have seen evidence both organisations have already made appropriate changes to their processes, so no further action is needed.
