1. ingesting vegetation during unescorted leave
“[the deceased] was detained at Aderyn Mental Health Hospital from 8/8/2022 to 11/8/2022 under Section 3 of the Mental Health Act. During that time he was granted unescorted leave within the grounds of the hospital. [the deceased] had a propensity to ingest vegetation and it was a condition of his leave that he refrain from so doing.”
