“Complete failure” of Fit to Discharge proceedings before Lieven J: Carers suspended, allegations of abuse, and no immediate prospect of discharge

The judge struggles to see how things could be worse. Allegations of abuse have been made against the carers, a safeguarding investigation is underway, the care agency has suspended six staff, and the LA has terminated the contract. Oh, and the hospital where P’s been for 14 months now has a ‘superbug’ infection and P’s tested positive.
