Request Summary: Dementia inpatients

Request Category: Media

 
Question Number 1:
Please provide me with the following information under the Freedom of Information Act.

How many inpatients with Dementia at your Trust in 2024 and 2025 were accompanied by a healthcare worker or another member of staff when they were sent for scans or tests, where a family member, guardian or other non-member of staff were not present.

For context, this doesn’t include porters, it refers to staff members who were there throughout the tests and scans, where a family member, guardian or other non-member of staff was not present.

Can you please provide 2024 and 2025 as separate figures.

How many inpatients with Dementia at your Trust in 2024 and 2025 were not accompanied by anyone? For context, this means no family member or guardian were present, nor a healthcare worker or other NHS staff member. Again, porters don’t apply here. Can you please provide 2024 and 2025 as separate figures.
 
Answer To Question 1:
There is no requirement for staff to document who escorted patients down to other departments.

Therefore this data is not available.
