Anger after NHS Trust says it has no plans to publish 'independent' review into to deaths of three young people

Families have blasted a NHS Trust after it said it did not intend to publish an independent review into their loved ones deaths. Three young people died in nine months at the same mental health unit.

Asked by the Manchester Evening News if the review would be published a spokesperson for the Trust said the Trust "always act on the wishes of the family regarding publication of reports," adding "and so in line with this we have no immediate plans to make the report public." Last week sitting at Rochdale Coroners' Court, senior coroner Joanne Kearsley ordered that a copy of the review - authored by consultant psychiatrist Dr Lisa Rippon - be sent to her by September 24. A full inquest into Rowan's death is due to begin at the end of next month.

At a previous hearing, a lawyer representing Rowan's family revealed they had a number of concerns regarding Rowan's treatment while a patient on the Gardener Unit at Prestwich Hospital. They claimed there were 'systemic issues regarding observation of patients on the unit', and that the campaign group Inquest had expressed concerns following a number of deaths, including Rowan's.

Previoulsy Marc, told the M.E.N the review was 'totally inadequate'. He said last year:"This is management politics and image control," he said. "It is stalling a full investigation into the management and culture of the Trust.
