Investigation reports

A man said it was unfair that deductions were made from payments he received towards the cost of his daughter’s respite care.

A woman who feared she had cancer complained that the Southern Health Trust should have operated to remove her womb.  Our investigation found no failures by the Trust.

A man complained that his mother was diagnosed incorrectly by the Southern Trust and prescribed her a drug that led to her becoming confused and agitated.  We found that the overall care of the patient was excellent, but partly upheld the man’s claims that the Trust didn’t deal properly with his complaint.

The Chief Executives of three health trusts have apologised after an error in recording a patient’s date of birth led to him being confused with another patient.
