Who was Lauren Scaffolds?

In February 2022, Bournemouth occupant Lauren Extensions died while getting care at the revenue driven Cloister Cheadle Regal, near Stockport.

Lauren was “profoundly bothered” in the wake of being migrated 250 miles (400 km) away from her home, as per word related specialist Kira Harvey.

For the benefit of Dorset CCG, she paid Lauren a few visits.


At the point when Lauren initially met Ms. Harvey in July 2021, she was a patient at the Cloister in Dorking.

Ms Harvey told Stockport Coroner’s Court she raised worries to Dorset CCG about the medical clinic staff’s information on chemical imbalance, which Lauren had recently been determined to have.

Lauren had clinical consideration from 2018 to 2022 in different medical clinics, a few of which were “out of region” and a long way from her Bournemouth home.

Lauren was moved to the Cheadle Illustrious three days after she initially met Ms. Harvey.

Since the family needed to travel very nearly six hours full circle to see her because of the exchange, Lindsey Extensions portrayed her little girl as “upset and damaged.”

After the move, Ms. Harvey kept on seeing Lauren while she was away.

She said under the watchful eye of the court that following a visit in September 2021, Lauren’s condition seemed to have improved on the grounds that her family had been educated that she could be moved to a restoration office.

She had created trust, as per Ms. Harvey. “I review that she was for the most part hopeful notwithstanding the challenges in the circumstance.”

Lauren was, notwithstanding, “moving profoundly upset being so distant from home,” as indicated by Ms. Harvey in October.

She recollected an email that Mrs. Extensions had sent, which expressed: “I’ve had Lauren on the telephone in a total wreck, crying since no one will sit with her, no one will wash her hair, and no one possesses energy for her.”

Lauren was “extremely miserable” when Ms. Harvey visited her again in November.

“She was troubled that there didn’t appear to be any advancement since my last visit about her having the option to move. She needed to be nearer to her loved ones.”

The court was educated that Ms. Harvey sent an admonition email to Dorset CCG’s administration.

“The continuous burdens of the climate and encountering dread of other unwell clients is tragically making her less ready to appear to be prepared to leave, add to this the continuous pressure of being so distant from home,” the email’s writer said.

“I viewed her as in a particularly more regrettable perspective than about two months prior, and I dread there is a gamble she will be caught in a cycle without a move.”

Because of a deficiency of beds on recovery wards, Dorset CCG, as per declaration in court, deferred Lauren’s exchange.

The examination is as yet continuous and is expected to most recent a month.
