Inquest finds neglect and multiple failings contributed to Abbi Mcallister’s death

TW for suicide (including method of death)


Abbi’s father Calvin Bailey said: “Abbi’s death has been absolutely shocking for all of us and we have struggled to come to terms with everything that happened.  Our suffering has been made worse by the knowledge that her death could have avoided if the Trust had not made so many basic mistakes in caring for her.

“Abbi was a vulnerable young woman in crisis and despite numerous warnings the Trust failed to ensure she was kept safe.”

“It’s still difficult to understand why my daughter was not better protected given she was at such obvious risk of committing suicide. I hope that the Trust now makes the necessary changes to ensure that detained patients are safe in its care.”
