There is a big difference between intending to harm someone and harming them unintentionally through not doing your job right #NTtwitchat
@Peter_Kirkham @legalaware @FranEntwistleNT Good point. Fatal ones leave grieving relatives. But non-fatal ones can be just as devastating.

@C7RKY@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT Intervention in non-fatal cases may ensure grossly negligent member of staff is prevented from killing! -
@Peter_Kirkham@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT As you already know Peter, I'm painfully aware of that fact, so agree entirely with you. -
@C7RKY@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT Prevention should be the main aim of whatever they come up with, not just punishment after tragic event. -
@Peter_Kirkham@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT The biggest single factor outside of staff numbers for me, is legal duty of candour. Remove lies -
@Peter_Kirkham@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT You can't prevent anything, if whatever needs preventing, is hidden by lies & false records. -
@C7RKY@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT >general duty of candour is not there too but it would not apply in case of criminal investigatn anyway -
@Peter_Kirkham@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT There's a DoC in the professional codes of sorts, but once lawyers involved, they dismiss codes. -
@C7RKY@legalaware@FranEntwistleNT That's lawyers for you! - 1 more reply

@C7RKY@Peter_Kirkham@FranEntwistleNT It is going to be interesting to see whether this distinction is elaborated further in neglect. -
@legalaware If you ever get an hour spare (which I doubt happens often), I'd love to know where you see my mum's case fitting into all this.
