Beth Matthews, Lauren Bridges and Deseree Fitzpatrick - died in 2022
A mental health hospital where three women died within eight weeks has been criticised by the health watchdog and issued a notice ordering bosses to make improvements. The Care Quality Commission said changes need to be made on acute wards for adults, and on psychiatric intensive care units, at the Cheadle Royal Hospital, also known as The Priory.
The latest CQC report deals with the wards where Beth, Lauren and Deseree were cared for, as well as other acute and PICU wards. Earlier this year, a damning inspection report into the hospital's services for children and young people was published. The overall rating for the acute wards for adults of working age and PICU wards has dropped from 'good' to 'requires improvement'. The rating for the inspected wards has gone from 'good' to 'inadequate' for being safe. How 'well-led' those wards are has been rated as 'requires improvement'.
"Additionally, staff didn't always review the effect medicines were having on people's mental and physical health, which could put people at risk and make them unwell.""However, staff had access to the full range of specialists required to meet the needs of people on the wards and understood how to protect them from abuse. They also worked well with other agencies to do so," Ms Chilton added.
What Cheadle Royal bosses say A Cheadle Royal spokesperson said: "This report is largely positive about the care we provide, and we remain rated ‘good’ for the domains for ‘caring’, ‘responsive’, and ‘effective’. We have addressed the issues raised in this inspection from over seven months ago, which are largely focussed on physical health monitoring and risk assessments for blood clots that have caused no harm to our patients.
Neglect contributed to Beth's death on Fern ward, the jury at her inquest found. She swallowed a poisonous substance she order over the internet. A conclusion of 'suicide contributed to by neglect' was recorded. A finding of neglect at an inquest means there was a 'gross failure to provide adequate care'.
