We will be providing insight and guidance into how organisations should deal with unexpected and unexplained deaths they might have a connection with, for example those of tenants or service users in general needs, supported, assisted and extra care accommodation.
The webinar will touch on:
1. what to do when you find out about an unexpected or unexplained death
2. the Health and Safety Executive
3. the purpose and process of inquests and potential conclusions
4. interplay with criminal and/or civil proceedings and regulatory involvement
5. PR considerations
This webinar is aimed at those who might have involvement in inquests or the repercussions of a death, including in-house lawyers, staff on the front line who may have to deal with a death as well as those who carry out internal investigations on behalf of their organisation
