The Trust should issue a clinical update reminding staff that drug use in young people is fairly common. It should be a matter of routine to consider carefully the role of illicit drug use in a patient's presentation.

Recommendation
The Trust should amend its incident reporting policy to make it clear that all cases that fall within the criteria of NHD 1. (170) will automatically be the subject of a 60-day incident (GIR) review following an initial reflective review.
