| 1 min read

We review the recent Mazars’ report into 10,296 deaths of people with a learning disability or mental health problem in contact with Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust. It is a damning and hard hitting report.

December 2015 saw the publication of Mazars’ independent review into 10,296 deaths of people with a learning disability or mental health problem in contact with Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust. It is a damning and hard hitting report.

Although focussed on a mental health/LD provider there are lessons in the report for everyone in the health sector – providers of any size and shape and commissioners.

We review the report in the attached briefing.
