Report summary

David Hall, who had dementia, was admitted to hospital because no safe and suitable social care placement was available and later remained there while awaiting placement. His nutritional needs were not fully met, his swallow deteriorated, and he developed aspiration pneumonia; he also contracted COVID-19 and died in hospital. The principal concern was the shortage of suitable social care placements, which contributed to his hospital admission and delayed discharge.

PFD Monitor interpretation
Lack of availability of suitable emergency social care placements within Stockport
Wider context from the report
“The inquest heard evidence that if a suitable emergency social care placement had been available then Mr Hall would not have been admitted to hospital. However, there was no alternative as one could not be found and he was unsafe in the community. His stay in the acute setting led to a rapid deterioration. He had to continue to stay in hospital because a suitable social care placement could not be found for him. The evidence was that had he been in a suitable social care setting his needs would have been met in a more appropriate way. The evidence was that these difficulties in finding a placement were as a result of issues in availability of social care within Stockport. ”

PFD Monitor interpretation
Poor communication and information sharing between agencies
Wider context from the report
“The inquest heard evidence that he had significant leaning difficulties and his capacity was limited. He was known to agencies. Despite this the inquest heard evidence that steps to reduce the risks were not taken due to: 1. Poor communication/information sharing between agencies which meant that there was no coordination of care and no clear overview of his needs; and 2. A lack of recognition by agencies involved with him of his health issues and their inter relationship with his social care and learning disability needs including the extent to which he had capacity. This was compounded by limited Care Act assessments ”

Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust cannot directly access patients’ full clinical histories through current systems.

Verbatim wording from the response
“All Stockport GPs use the Emis Clinical system, including our community and out of hours services.
