    Report summary

    Miriam Tighe became a resident of Edge Hill Residential Home in August 2016 and later received hospital and residential nursing care before passing away on 28 February 2017. The report identified concerns that promazine and other sedative or antipsychotic medication continued to be prescribed and administered despite advice to stop promazine, and that communication between GPs and a psychiatrist was insufficient, leading to unsafe prescribing. The investigation recorded that her death followed naturally occurring disease, with high levels of sedation and immobility in the preceding months worsening her frailty.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to discontinue promazine after specialist advice to stop it

    Wider context from the report

    “Promazine was sought by the home manager at Edge Hill Residential Home and prescribed by the GPs at Royton & Crompton family practice after ████████ (Psychiatrist working in the Memory Clinic (part of Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust)) had advised that such medication be stopped on the 16th November 2016 and, again on the 16th December 2016. On both occasions, promazine continued to be prescribed by the GP and continued to be administered under the control of the manager at Edge Hill Residential Home. In the event, I found that Miriam Tighe had been over-sedated during her time as a resident at Edge Hill Residential Home. The psychiatrist had recommended alternative sedative and antipsychotic medication, which was also administered to Miriam Tighe. It was clear that the GPs and the Psychiatrist were not aware of decisions being made by each other in October to December 2016, which led to unsafe prescribing of sedatives and antipsychotic medication. ”
