I agree Dr Caldwell that honesty is a core value. However, it's the dishonesty that follows a medical error that concerns me & many others. Being truthful about adverse clinical incidents & truly learning from them brings out compassion & forgiveness of those damaged & bereaved!

When Care has gone wrong being open & honest generally brings a calming effect & even sympathy & understanding from those harmed. But culture in UK Healthcare is still ‘Hide the notes from complainant, say sorry but give away as few facts as possible’ out of fear of litigation

Exactly. It's that culture we need to get rid of. Fear of litigation is no excuse for a lack of honesty. It is only right that the injured parties can get compensation if they want it but may are prepared to forsake it if there is honesty and learning.

Whilst some obviously have to pursue litigation in order to secure desperately needed compensation, in many cases it's the lack of honesty which CAUSES the litigation. Want to cut NHS litigation costs? Easy. Just be honest & stop defending the indefensible.

And potential defamation when staff attack person's character rather than fess up, allow closure & learning will drive people to litigation to prove their point & protect their good name/ character.

They'd much prefer to gaslight rather than take responsibility. That's becoming painfully apparent all round.

Can't understand why, when it becomes so obvious, they try to keep it up. We no longer sit trying to sort out a problem like this with a letter (pen & paper). Our resources now mean it can backfire. Damages others trust in them. Yet they have been so slow to catch on.Embarrassing

My take is that they do it because they can. Who stops them? It's only recently that the means to counter their narrative has become available to the public. And they hate it.

You've hit the nail on the head John! Welsh Office denied for 3yrs [1992-1995] that they received Robbie's original GP medical records from my Forensic Expert, in advance of my appeal, when they had been sent by Recorded Delivery & a record of receipt was in their post-room!!pic.twitter.com/M9xd2Amn2d

One who fights for justice never goes away and must not go away. Injustice anywhere denies justice everywhere denies justice everywhere MLKing. In a culture of bullying truth is the casualty. We must transform culture
