    Report summary

    Kirandip Bharaj died aged 45 on 14 September 2019 after sustaining burns and inhaling fumes in an accidental fire at her flat. She had a known eating disorder, declining weight and increasing confusion before her death. The principal concern was that adult social care staff may not recognise deterioration in eating disorders without appropriate tools, training and access to relevant guidance, potentially leaving people without urgent medical assessment and treatment.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure of adult social care staff to recognise concerning signs or deterioration of eating disorders

    Wider context from the report

    “It is important that adult social care staff, should they become aware of concerning signs of a previously unknown eating disorder problem, or identify a possible deterioration in the condition of a service user previously diagnosed with an eating disorder, take action within their range of powers to raise such concerns with the appropriate professionals, and possibly family members. I have a concern that in the absence of the tools, training and access to the relevant guidance, well - meaning adult social care staff may not recognise when a situation arises and the service user will go without necessary and often very urgent, medical assessment and treatment, and with fatal consequences. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of access to specialist eating disorder services for people supported by adult social care

    Wider context from the report

    “Many vulnerable people live in the community with support from adult social care, but who may not have access to specialist eating disorder services, perhaps due to a lack of availability or because they are reluctant to engage with specialist services. ”
