The coroner's concerns
1. lack of urgent mental health assessment for residents
“The inquest heard that when Mr [name redacted] went to see his GP she was very concerned about the risk he posed to himself and wanted him to be seen urgently by the Home Based Treatment Team (HBTT). The initial call was to the Manchester team -because the GP practice was within the City Of Manchester-who accept referrals from GPs.”
