The Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust was slammed for its treatment of Valdo Calocane
The Nottinghamshire mental health trust slammed for its treatment of Valdo Calocane has partnered with the Broadmoor Hospital as it makes improvements. For a period of around two years, the Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust had cared for the Nottingham attacks killer Calocane.
The inspections followed the Nottingham attacks carried out by Valdo Calocane, who fatally stabbed Barnaby Webber, Grace O'Malley-Kumar and Ian Coates in June 2023. The commission published its reports in January and March this year, with NHFT's overall rating dropping from 'requires improvement' to 'inadequate'.It found poor access to mental health care, high demand, long waiting lists, lack of inpatient beds and difficulty accessing crisis care.
In a report on its improvements, NHFT says: "The trust accepted entry into and recognised the unusual high-profile circumstances we are in. To support the ongoing delivery of the , buddying arrangements have been put in place with the high secure hospitals Broadmoor and Ashworth as well as with Northamptonshire trusts.
The length of stay in adult mental health services is still below the required target of 39 days on average by the end of the year. The trust says a pilot will continue this month on "flexible ward capacity" to respond to demand.
