Ben Nelson-Roux was was the youngest resident staff had ever known at the hostel where he died, the inquest heardA coroner has criticised the lack of accommodation for young people with substance abuse problems after the death of a teenager in an adult hostel.
He said he would write to the health secretary about the lack of facilities for under-18s with substance issues. There was a lack of alternative accommodation and he had been on the waiting list for a place at a hostel for young people, the court heard. He had attended hospital a number of times for incidents of self-harm or attempted self-harm, including punching a wall and falling in front of a car.A specialist nurse told the inquest she was worried about Ben's "vulnerability at the hostel".
He also said he could not be sure the nature of the hostel Ben was staying in had contributed to his death, but added it was "not in contention that the accommodation was unsuitable".
