#THREAD 🎥 "We're contacting @uhbtrust urgently to find out what action they're taking". We spoke to Richard Burden, chair of @HealthwatchE in Birmingham& Solihull. It's after a @4qualitycare report found staff shortages at the Trust during inspections in December #CapitalReports
@uhbtrust@HealthwatchE@4qualitycare The inspections were carried out on 2nd and 9th December 2020. It found issues including a patient who had died not being moved in a timely manner, and a patient who was injured during a fall #CapitalReports
@uhbtrust@HealthwatchE@4qualitycare Richard Burden from @HealthwatchE here says though they've had feedback from patients about concerns around communication with things like DNR notices. He also told us there's a lot of gratitude towards NHS staff #CapitalReports
A civil case against the woman accused over the death of Oxfordshire teenager #HarryDunn starts in the US today. Harry's family have filed a civil claim for damages against Anne Sacoolas. The first hearing is happening in court in Virginia tonight @Justice4Harry#CapitalReports

He later added that Mrs Sacoolas worked for “the State Department” but could not confirm if that was a cover job for another position, possibly within an intelligence agency #HarryDunn#CapitalReports
