Investigation reports

We found that failures in the care and treatment of a patient by a GP Practice had no impact on the prognosis or outcome, but had they not occurred it may have been possible for the patient to have received an earlier diagnosis.

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.

A report has criticised elements of the care and treatment provided to an elderly patient in Domnall Care Home (Belfast).
