The coroner's concerns
1. lack of policies for independent providers
“Despite there being a safeguarding meeting following Mr. [name redacted] death on 22nd January 2022 there appeared to be no review of whether the local authority ought to be have had policies in place to ensure that independent providers were adequately carrying out their contractual duties towards vulnerable individuals especially if the CQC were correct and there was no role for them in this case”
