Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust says it has dismissed 11 members of staff for inappropriately accessing the medical records of victims of the June 2023 Nottingham attacks. Multiple outlets report that the trust also takes further disciplinary or management action against other employees, with one report stating that 14 additional staff have had actions taken against them. Another outlet describes the 14 as being given written warnings, while the trust’s overall position is that staff accessed records without proper authorisation. The victims named across reports include Barnaby Webber and Grace O’Malley-Kumar, both 19 years old, and Ian Coates, a 65-year-old caretaker. The Daily Mail adds that there are claims some people beyond those dismissed may have viewed files, citing suggestions that up to 150 records may have been accessed, though this figure is not presented as confirmed in the other coverage. The trust’s decision is framed as a breach of rules governing access to patient information, following internal review.
