    Report summary

    Lee Colin DAVIES, who was residing at a hostel for homeless people and was known to use illicit drugs intravenously, was found unresponsive in his room the morning after he had been found with a needle in his groin. He was declared deceased by attending paramedics; the inquest conclusion was “Drug Related” and the medical cause of death was recorded as combined drug toxicity and bronchopneumonia. The report raised concern that hostel staff lacked guidance and training on monitoring and safeguarding residents found in circumstances suggesting illicit drug use, creating a risk that residents might be put to bed without ongoing monitoring.

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Recipient name withheld; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of staff training and guidance on responding to residents suspected of illicit drug use

    Wider context from the report

    “(1) The evidence revealed that staff, including night staff at the hostel, have no direct training or guidance on what steps should be taken when a resident is found in circumstances which suggest that they may have injected or otherwise take illicit drugs. The training which they are given, known as a Harm Reduction Course, has some focus on recognising the signs of an overdose and, in appropriate cases, administering opiate drug antidotes, but does not give any guidance or training on monitoring and safeguarding a resident in this situation. Given that many of the residents in this hostel are likely to have alcohol or drug issues, a lack of guidance or training is likely to lead to future deaths in circumstances in which residents are simply put to bed and left without any form of ongoing monitoring. ”
