    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Unclear process for promptly obtaining community mental health records

    Wider context from the report

    “3. The prison appreciated that Mr. Purser was due to have a psychiatrist’s appointment in the community soon after coming into prison. Although he was booked into the primary care prison mental health service the means by which community health records were to be obtained was not clear. For an appropriate assessment to be made there is a need for an urgent contact with community mental health services to be made so that records are promptly obtained. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to ensure ACCT health-screening doctors are trained in required procedures

    Wider context from the report

    “1. The Doctor who saw Mr. Purser for the second health screen on the day after admission had not received ACCT training as required by PS 164/2011 and HMP Swansea Suicide Prevention Policy 2010 and was not aware of the requirement for him to be trained in the procedures. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to provide sufficient ACCT trigger-event recording and assessment guidance for objective risk assessment

    Wider context from the report

    “2. The trigger event endorsed on the documentation requiring review of Mr. Purser under the ACCT was given as “loss of contact with partner/breakdown in relationship”. Mr. Purser’s apparent dependence on maintaining contact with his partner was correctly identified by the prison but the way in which the wording of the trigger was expressed left much to the subjective assessment of the officers about the state of his relationship with his partner. Because of the way in which the ACCT records were kept officers did not have enough information to make a realistic assessment and in their evidence some officers draw a distinction between Mr. Purser’s relationship going through a difficult time and it having broken down. If a trigger event is something which cannot be easily and objectively determined by an officer more detailed observations and recording will be required. If the only way in which a trigger can be expressed is in similar language to the trigger some indication needs to be given as to how the assessment is to be carried out and how clearly information must be shared by means of the records kept. ”
