Staff falsified records and assaulted patients – CQC
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has released a report detailing shocking findings in a recent inspection of a healthcare facility. According to the report, staff at the facility were found to have falsified records and assaulted patients.
The inspection revealed that staff had been altering patient records to cover up mistakes and negligence. In some cases, records were completely fabricated to make it seem as though patients had received proper care when they had not.
Furthermore, several patients reported being physically assaulted by staff members. The CQC has called for immediate action to be taken to protect patients and ensure that staff are properly trained and vetted.
This report serves as a stark reminder of the importance of proper oversight and accountability in healthcare facilities. Patients must be able to trust that they are receiving the best possible care and that their safety is always the top priority.
