The management team had also failed to report the deaths appropriately. It meant the wider NHS system could not spot the high fatality rates. The board of the hospital trust was also unaware of the deaths until July 2016.

This is devastating. Monitoring systems were set up after Harold Shipman, to make sure that such clear signals of something untoward would not be missed in future. Hospital management appear to have subverted those systems to protect their own reputations.
