State Custody related deaths
Concerns summary (AI summary) Insufficient night staffing on prison healthcare wards compromised effective ACCT observations and overall prisoner care. Additionally, staff were not taking breaks, impacting their wellbeing and the quality of care provided.
Noted (AI summary) NOMS reviewed the night staffing level for HMP Birmingham and found it acceptable, noting G4S's deployment of a Prison Custody Officer. They state that the Night Orderly Officer arranges cover for breaks, and additional staff are provided for prisoners under continuous supervision. The Trust has liaised with Birmingham Community Healthcare Trust and G4S to address staffing concerns and is considering options for staff breaks, including administrative duty sharing. They are engaging the commissioner regarding funding for an extra staff member and have met with G4S to discuss non-clinical duties.
