Investigation reports

We recommended that a healthcare provider review its policies and improve staff training after we investigated the care it provided to a complainant’s elderly mother.

The Ombudsman has found that a care home provided a patient with the right level of the drug Quetiapine, and addressed a complainant’s concerns about the diet the patient received in the home.

An investigation has concluded that the care plans prepared for a resident of a nursing home in Armagh were largely adequate, but that it had underestimated the resident’s risk of a fall, and that it was inconsistent in its assessment of his mental state.
