Police Training in Medico-crime
Wendy Hesketh made this Freedom of Information request to National Policing Improvement Agency
National Policing Improvement Agency did not have the information requested.
From: Wendy Hesketh
4 June 2009
Dear Sir or Madam,
Can you please tell me what training, if any, police forces receive
in relation to medico-crime? For example, the training that might
have been introduced in order to prepare forces to contribute
effectively to 'The Information Sharing Protocol between the
General Medical Council, the Nursing and Midwifery Council, the
Crown Prosecution Service and the Association of Chief Police
Officers’, or e.g. The Home Office Circular 45/1986?
I'm referring to the type of training that would be necessary to
avoid the sort of criticisms levelled at the Manchester
Metropolitan Police for their lack of investigative or detection
skills in relation to murder of patients identified by The Shipman
Inquiry.
Can you provide any detail as to the type of training offered, by
whom, and dates? Is it now a requirement that someone in each
regional police force is trained in aspects of medico-crime? If so,
can you please give more details?
Lastly, I would like to know when the first training in
medico-crime was introduced and what prompted this subject to
appear on the police training curriculum?
Yours faithfully,
Wendy Hesketh
