Report on selected summaries of investigations April to June 2015

Details

The short anonymised stories illustrate the profound impact that failures in public services can have on the lives of individuals and their families. Most of the summaries we are publishing are cases we have upheld or partly upheld. These are the cases which provide clear and valuable lessons for public services by showing what needs changing so that similar mistakes can be avoided in future. They include complaints about failures to spot serious illnesses and mistakes by government departments that caused financial hardship.
