A coroner has found that two separate errors by different parts of the NHS in Central Lancashire resulted in the death of a patient. The mistakes, made five years apart, could have been survivable individually, but together proved fatal. Changes have been made by both NHS services involved in response to the tragedy.
The devastating double error by different parts of the NHS in Central Lancashire led to the death of Oliver James Campbell, a coroner has found. Mr. Campbell passed away at the Royal Preston in August 2021, as a result of mistakes made five years apart - the first by the hospital itself and the second by the North West Ambulance Service.
According to the Sudden Cardiac Arrest UK charity, that is “the recognised period either just before or just after a full cardiac arrest, when the patient’s condition is very unstable and care must be taken to prevent progression or regression into a full cardiac arrest”. Mr. Campbell’s partner dialled 999, but, Ms. Bisset said, “the call was not managed in accordance with policy standards which resulted in an inaccurate categorisation of the urgency of the situation'.
