Stephen McNamara talks with Nigel Poole QC about claims for damages for allegedly negligent psychiatric care.  These claims may arise out of care given to patients in psychiatric units, care in the community, or care given in other healthcare settings such as A&E.  What are the common features of such claims, and what challenges do they present for litigants and their advisers?

Rachel Galloway, Assistant Coroner, talks with Nigel Poole QC about the role of the Coroner, with a focus on Inquests into deaths in a healthcare setting.  These Inquests can involve complex medical evidence, and concerns about the care given to the deceased.  How are these deaths investigated?  Who is the Coroner and how are they appointed?  What is the Coroner’s role and how is it determined which deaths are investigated and which are not?  What questions have to be answered at an Inquest?  What is an article 2 Inquest?  What conclusions may a Coroner reach?  The discussion in this episode covers issues of how evidence is gathered for an Inquest, including documentary, witness and expert evidence; who is an interested party; and when is an Inquest held with a jury.

It is intended for lawyers and non-lawyers alike. In Episode One we discussed the recent Supreme Court decision in Darnley v Croydon Healthcare.In Episode Two we look at judicial decisions on consent to treatment in the aftermath of the landmark Supreme Court decision in Montgomery v Lanarkshire. How has the law on consent to treatment moved on since Montgomery? What risks should a healthcare professional discuss with a patient in order to obtain their informed consent to treatment? What alternatives to any proposed treatment should they raise with the patient? When and in what circumstances should these discussions take place?Nigel Poole QC, Helen Mulholland and Richard Borrett will be discussing the cases of Webster v Burton, Duce v Worcester Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, and Thefaut v Johnston, amongst others, and considering the practical implications of this developing area of clinical negligence for both doctors and patients. 
 ‘Debrief' - a series of podcasts from Kings Chambers’ clinical negligence and personal injury group.  The Supreme Court’s decision in Darnley v Croydon held an NHS Trust liable after a receptionist in Accident and Emergency gave misleading information to a patient about the likely waiting time to be seen. He chose not to wait and left the hospital, with serious consequences. Why did the Supreme Court find that the Trust was liable, and what are the implications of its judgment? Nigel Poole QC, Helen Mulholland and Richard Livingston discuss.

This episode of the planning podcast discusses an underused policy, but one that could rise to significance in the recovery.  Vacant Building Credit ('VBC') might be seen as something of a planning backwater, suitable only for dedicated planning aficionados. However, the esoteric nature of the policy should not mask its potential significance, especially during and after the current crisis. Sadly, one of the inevitable consequences of Covid-19 is that more buildings will become vacant and the economic pressures on the house building sector increased. This pressure could be alleviated to some extent by the sensible application of VBC. The panel on this episode is Matthew Stafford (Senior Planning Manager, St Modwen), with Jonathan Easton and Piers Riley-Smith from the Kings Planning Team, chaired by Philip Robson.Download the factsheet here
