Find out more about service improvements

When we find fault, we can recommend improvements to systems and processes where they haven’t worked properly, so that others do not suffer from these same problems in future. Common examples are policy changes; procedural reviews; and staff training. Service improvements from decisions are published for 5 years and those from reports are published for 10 years.

    Summary

    Mrs D complains about her father-in-law, Mr E’s discharge planning by the Council and subsequent care in a nursing home and a hospital. We found fault with some aspects of Mr E’s care and have made recommendations to the Council and Home to improve their services. We did not find fault with the Hospital.

    Due to the systemic failings in Deprivation of Liberty Safeguarding assessment we recommended the Council produce an action plan to address the delays in carrying out the assessments with details about how these changes will be audited and monitored.
