The coroner's concerns
1. inconsistent care records underestimating choking risk
“Entries in care records were inconsistent, some indicating [the deceased] was not at risk of choking when he clearly was at such risk, and indeed one member of staff gave credible evidence that she had on one occasion have to use skills learned at some recent training to assist [the deceased] after he overfilled his mouth with food.”
