U gotta ask the question…
What r the big 🧀 types getting paid to do?
Manage services or manage reputation?
*I know it’s both btw - but too often the focus seems to be on the wrong one✔️
NEW: Essex trust @EPUTNHS facing mental health deaths probe claims @LampardInquiry pressure left them unprepared for a unannounced CQC inspection

@pash22@nuwandiss@NHSEngland@CamHenderson98 I will just make the legal point.
Drs mostly don’t detain people subject to the provisions of the MHA✔️
It’s #AMHPs that do that - based on Medical Recommendations✔️

>preventing the worsening of the disorder or one or more of its symptoms or manifestations & which is appropriate in the patient’s case✔️
I don’t think Mr Vineall does either btw. Or will he ever have to make those decisions in the chaos that can be a MHAA #AMHPlife ✔️
>willing & able to accept the person✔️
I am still no clearer what the definition of “serious harm” is✔️
Or how I am supposed to predict the likelihood of that “serious harm” occurring✔️
