The coroner's concerns
1. risk assessment of suicide and self-harm in prison healthcare
“of the inquest | expressed my concern in relation to assessing risk of suicide and self-harm and how from the evidence heard it appeared that there was a possible conflict between how healthcare/mental healthcare staff assess risk in this area and the requirements of the ACCT policy for all staff working with prisoners to follow the requirements of PSI 64/2011”
