PFD Monitor interpretation Failure to share significant safeguarding information between concerned professionals
Wider context from the report “(2) Had such an earlier assessment as a Vulnerable Adult been made then discussions would have taken place with all concerned with every having significant information sharing it with others . This would have increased the likelihood that preventative measures would have been put in place as the deceased being better or fully informed as to the increased risk she was putting herself in by continuing to live with her husband whose condition was deteriorating. The best illustration of this lack of shared information is that the evidence given at the Inquest when all relevant witnesses were present, should have taken place in a meeting before the situation became critical.

PFD Monitor interpretation Failure to refer and assess an adult at risk as a vulnerable adult or victim of domestic violence
Wider context from the report “(1) A referral and assessment should have been made that the deceased was a Vulnerable Adult at risk from her husband . Such a referral and assessment could have been made before or after April 2012, but most notably on or around the 2nd - 4th April 2012 when the deceased’s GP made a direct referral to social services. This should have led to an assessment as a Vulnerable Adult but if not as the victim of domestic violence .
