The coroner's concerns
1. inadequate falls risk assessments and care plans
“the falls risk assessments and care plans in place for him from December 2024 onwards were wholly inadequate”
2. low night-time staffing levels
“no recognition by Cardinal Healthcare that night-time staffing levels at The Meadows Nursing Home at the material time were concerningly low”
3. risk to residents' lives at other nursing homes
“there will remain a risk that the lives of residents at their other nursing homes may be put at risk”
