Southport knife attack survivor Leanne Lucas 'devastated' after 48 NHS staff accessed her medical records for NO reason
Leanne Lucas, the dance instructor who was stabbed while running a Taylor Swift-themed childrenโs workshop in Southport in July 2024, has been told almost two years later that 48 members of staff at University Hospitals of Liverpool Group looked at victimsโ confidential records with zero clinical justification.
The trust discovered the breaches in August 2024 but delayed telling survivors until this week, claiming it was to protect their mental health.
Leanne said: โI am absolutely devastated and horrified that my privacy has been invaded when I was at my most vulnerableโฆ 48 people not involved in my care abused their position of trust.โ
The hospital has now launched HR disciplinary action against the staff involved, notified regulators and professional bodies, and issued a formal apology.
Leanne has waived her anonymity and is represented at the ongoing Southport Inquiry by law firm Broudie Jackson Canter.
Hope you're busy out chaps
