Report summary
Demet Akcicek was found dead in bed beside her sleeping seven-year-old son on the morning of 27 May 2022. The inquest determined that she died after taking an excess of prescribed and online-obtained medication, and that she did not intend to take her life. Concerns included a failure by a mental health service worker to arrange follow-up after a welfare call, and an insufficiently clear record of that call.

PFD Monitor interpretation Failure to produce clear and sufficient clinical notes
Wider context from the report “When the duty worker from Islington complex depression, anxiety and trauma (CDAT) service rang Ms Akcicek for a welfare check on 25 November 2021, Ms Akcicek reported feeling “quite bad” and that she wanted to cry. She explained that she had difficulty performing everyday activities such as cooking and taking her child to school. She said that two nights earlier, her son reported that she had woken chanting, “I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die”.
The duty worker (a registered mental health nurse) formed the view that Ms Akcicek needed to be seen by the service, but failed to put her name on the board, and so she was not discussed at the multi disciplinary team meeting and no follow up was arranged. In addition, the duty worker accepted in court that her note of the conversation was insufficient . I found the note difficult to understand and the duty worker was not able fully to explain its meaning .
The duty worker told me that she will not make such mistakes again. However, I did not hear evidence of what steps, if any, Camden & Islington Trust has taken to avoid such a situation arising in future.

PFD Monitor interpretation Failure to record skin integrity or breakdown in daily care records
Wider context from the report “(brief summary of matters of concern)
Joan had only started to receive care at home four times per day from lunch time of 29/04/2020, however when Joan failed to get up from her bed, refused food and fluids, complained of pain and generally started to deteriorate;-
1. The matter of Joan’s general deterioration was not escalated as it should have been to her GP/District Nurse/Commissioning Social Services etc.
2. When Joan complained of pain -the matter was not escalated as it should have been.
3. There was no comprehensive plan of care, risk assessment, pressure area care plan/risk assessment, falls assessment and care plan put in place following assessment by Litch care services. The manager/proprietor ████████ Registered manager informed the court they were still in the process of doing risk assessment/s etc because Joan was only receiving their care for 4.5 days before she was admitted to hospital.
4. Joan was admitted to hospital with Grade 4 pressure ulcers/tissue injuries to her sacrum, but because Joan had refused much of the personal care offered to her and she had remained largely immobile in bed the pressure sores/tissue injuries were not documented, assessed or managed as they should have been nor was the tissue viability nurse, GP, District nurse or social care team informed to enable them to commence/prescribe appropriate treatment.
5. There were no records/daily log making any mention of skin integrity/breakdown even though Joan was in bed, frail, immobile and incontinent in addition to which because Joan was refusing care her incontinence pad were not being changed regularly.
6. Training/education, support & supervision of care staff including the provision of clear escalation procedures was inadequate. Noting care staff attended upon Joan regularly as required.

Wider context from the report “2. Record Keeping quality: There were numerous inaccuracies in Matthew’s medical records , eg his status was written as informal when he was formal, he was described as violent when he was not and was described as "she". Staff were unable to explain how that occurred. The investigation witness from the Priory thought there was an element of cutting and pasting into the records from another patient’s records. I have serious concerns about the accuracy of the clinical record at the Priory for what are some of the most vulnerable patients.
