Thanks - patient is always informed of the issues/errors/ legal status, given an apology, offered IMHA support, and informed of their right to submit a complaint to the Trust and CQC in respect of the factors leading to any period of unlawful detention/treatment.

My concern is the poor communication between agencies, professionals, courts when dealing with such matters and the issuance of the official paperwork reaching the correct hospital in a timely manner.

Is there any court guidance around how this process works - especially with helpful contact details for chasing any court paperwork - thinking of it from a MHA Office perspective - we are normally the last to be informed.
