This popular session of Coroner’s Question Time, led by Nicola Evans along with three experienced coroners, focused on best practice for inquests.
The session focussed on the importance of preparation for advocates, factual witnesses and senior managers and the role that everyone involved in the inquest process has in helping the inquest to run smoothly. The discussion highlighted the significance of early engagement with families, appropriate court conduct and making appropriate admissions in advance of the inquest to narrow the issues and scope.
It also addressed the importance of accurate and well-prepared statements and effective communication between health and care providers and coroners to ensure a smooth inquest process.
