List of coroner’s Prevention of Future Deaths reports (PFDs) relating to care provided by Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

Dr Minh Alexander 26 January 2025

In preparation for the expected independent investigation report on the psychotic patient Valdo Calocane’s killings and very serious, life changing assaults in Nottingham, I have searched the Chief Coroner’s database for coroners’ warning Prevention of Future Death reports issued to the NHS mental health trust responsible for his care.

I am sharing the list of 26 PFDs for anyone who may find it useful, with some brief contextual information, sketching out some of the pressures on all mental health trusts nationally.

The list can be found here:

My condolences to all bereaved, injured and otherwise affected by the catastrophe in Nottingham.

I have reviewed independent investigation reports on mental health homicides that are published by NHS England and transferred the data to a spreadsheet to support public access.

I also examined NHS England’s approach to commissioning such independent investigations and found some serious concerns.

  1. Good work. I’ve always found PFD Reports to be a mine of information of what goes wrong v what should have happened. If only all healthcare authorities were forced to study and act upon them – then healthcare would be a far safer place.
