Patient records • NHS harm • Missing audit trails • Institutional cover-ups
I dig through the paperwork institutions hoped would stay buried. Then I name names.
We have tried our MP. It didn’t help.
Because when reputations are at stake, institutions don’t behave like care systems.
They behave like risk-management systems.
The Trust’s own Serious Incident (SI) report (“Delay to diagnosis of lung cancer”) states there was a missed opportunity to scan Julian around 10 months earlier, and that this likely had a significant impact on cure/survival.
But the primary evidence that would let any independent person verify that timeline still hasn’t been disclosed:
the source imaging (PACS/RIS export / DICOM) — not summaries.
And the records that *have* been disclosed contradict themselves on basic facts:
8 December 2021:
Julian was taken to hospital by ambulance for acute chest pain / suspected MI.
The SI chronology records him as brought in by ambulance — yet the disclosed clinical record states he “arrived himself”.
The Trust also states they were unable to contact Julian before his death.
And the SI report itself reached the family months later — five months after he died.
Then, in the week before he died, his fentanyl and oxycodone were increased.
We requested the pharmacy dispensing/medication record for that period.
The pharmacy has not provided it despite request.
And the disclosed bundle doesn’t even contain a clear SACT timeline — the systemic anti-cancer therapy administration record (regimen, cycle dates, doses, delays/modifications).
More importantly: as disclosed to date, the bundle includes radiology and downstream molecular/PD-L1 outputs, but the *primary diagnostic pathology report* that actually confirms “adenocarcinoma” is absent from the disclosed export (or shown as blank) — meaning the diagnosis chain is not independently auditable.
And to be clear: we have also been refused the case file by two previously instructed solicitors — meaning even material already obtained while they were instructed has not been released back to the family.
So we are being asked to accept headline conclusions…
while the primary evidence needed to verify them is missing or refused.
If the SI conclusions are accurate, release the source evidence and audit trails:
• Imaging (PACS/RIS export / DICOM)
• Audit trail for the “arrived himself” entry (who entered it, when, and on what basis)
• SACT administration record/timeline (regimen + cycles + dates + doses + changes)
• Full diagnostic pathology report chain (cytology/histology text + accession numbers + addenda)
• Prescribing + dispensing trail for the fentanyl/oxycodone increase
“Trust us” is not disclosure.
Evidence is.
When institutions control the evidence, they control the story.
Evidence withheld isn’t a mistake. It’s a method.

@washghost1 Dear Claire,
Your staffing problem is not my emergency, and I will not be missing my grandmother’s funeral because management failed to arrange adequate cover.
I won’t be at work on Friday. This is notice, not a request.
Kind regards,
Emma

Welcome to midwifery. @GuerrillaCarl@ArturNadol7566@KenZeroHarm@YvetteCooperMP@andyburnham@JohnSwinney@AConstance23
@BBCBreaking They should have called whoever designed the assisted dying protocols. Apparently the state becomes remarkably efficient once death is rebranded as compassion.
'Dame' Esther Rantzen here saying that those who do not wish to take Covid Jabs should be left to die at home if they have a stroke or a heart attack.
Such compassion...
If you were the person who posted me the internal document from a north London hospital in a white A4 envelope - thank you I have it. But I really need to speak with you - I will keep it confidential!

East Kent Hospitals NHS Trust has apologised after an independent review found that eight babies might have survived with better maternity care, admitting it has "failed families".
More here: https://t.co/BleL6pco1K
This is heartbreaking. No woman should ever be expected to grieve her own baby while carrying on caring for everyone else’s. I lost my baby at 20 weeks and had to go onto a maternity ward for a D&C, surrounded by women still carrying theirs. I still remember walking through those doors knowing my baby was gone while everyone around me was preparing to meet theirs. That stays with you.
If it connects fragmented NHS data, tracks patients, flags missed actions and traces records to source, it could expose where care failed, who knew and who was responsible.
Patients or their families should not have to fight for years for evidence the NHS already holds. Every access, amendment and deletion should leave an immutable audit trail, with full disclosure and named accountability after harm.
The NHS doesn't want the public to know this ⬇️
PLEASE REPOST and make more people aware to prevent your loved ones and yourself from being sexually assaulted and raped in hospitals
@wesstreeting “Hope again” is a lovely conference slogan. Families still fighting the NHS for records, answers and accountability after serious harm have heard enough slogans.
If accountability isn’t in the plan, it’s just another speech.
@andyburnham Then build a Britain where the NHS cannot fail someone, leave them unaware of it, and make their family spend years fighting for the truth after they die.
That’s the Britain my children deserved their dad to see.
@BBCPolitics “Person-centred” is meaningless if patients can be harmed, records can remain incomplete, families can wait years for answers and nobody is clearly accountable. Before building another national service, fix the culture that already allows failure to disappear into paperwork.
The NHS is “free at the point of use”, but that means very little if the ambulance doesn’t arrive in time, the diagnosis is missed, the records are incomplete and nobody is accountable when avoidable harm occurs. Before creating another national service, perhaps make the existing one safe and transparent.
@CamillaTominey We’re still waiting for an apology more than three years after the NHS admitted a breach that caused a death. Apparently apologies are easier when they’re aimed at the institution than the families it failed.
I’m not blaming him for what happened. The NHS failure happened long before he became Prime Minister.
I was responding to him speaking emotionally about the country giving his dad a good life. My children lost their dad after the NHS failed him, neither he nor we were told, and we still don’t even have his complete medical records to understand everything that went wrong.
For families like mine, those words land very differently.
@andyburnham, my children are growing up without their dad after the NHS failed him, and neither he nor we were told.
We only learned five months after he died.
The NHS failure ended with his death. The consequences did not. My children will carry them for the rest of their lives.
My children lost their dad. I lost the man I was raising them with. Hope won’t bring him back after the NHS failed him, and we didn’t even learn what had gone wrong until five months after he died.
@AndyBurnham, you can dress failure up as hope. My children still have to grow up without their dad.
