Honestly? Role modelling. I believe that all my senior medical and nursing colleagues on #northbrook @HHFTnhs are the same, and this sets the tone. We have incredible nurses and trainees, who are open and reflective, and our @UoS_Medicine students see a different way of working.

It's legally unenforceable. Proving who knew what and when. Read NI Hyponatraemia enquiry for an example of how after 14 years of investigation no one is still sure of exactly what happened in at least one of the cases

I think that serious questions need to be asked about Trust legal teams.

Oh, me too!!

Or just as much questions about boards which hide behind legal team. "We were just acting on the legal advice."

Has failure of duty of candour ever been tested in courts? Trusts and medics are supposed to help courts reach the correct conclusion.... but it's clear that that's a standard that's rarely met.

@CareQualityComm can take regulatory action other than prosecution. Personal experience is that even when you report a breach no proper investigation. And no discussion. -
you can rely on it e.g. when disclosure not forthcoming but often lacks teeth. Something that should be given more focus and bite to make trusts get their act together, esp in inquests where they can really drag their feet on basic things like medical records.

Shame is there will be a lot of staff here who will admit mistakes & try to resolve problems. New duty of candour recommended because of those who wouldn't.
