The coroner's concerns
1. neurology notes stored on patient pass
“The evidence before the inquest was that the neurology service based at Salford Royal Hospital provided a service across Greater Manchester. However the notes kept by the neurology team were not stored on the patient's notes but recorded on patient pass. This meant accessing the notes required recognising that patient pass needed to be accessed.”
