The doctor states the facility's records show Mr Carrim departed at approximately 1:30 pm and returned at approximately 5 pm on 14 July, and such excursions are not unusual.
“the facility's records reflect that he departed at approximately 1:30 and returned at approximately 5... these kind of excursions are not unusual”
The facility is not a place where a patient may enter and leave at will; leaving requires a pass from the treating doctor or self-discharge.
“I deal next with the facility's leave regime because I understand that an impression may exist that the facility is a place a patient may enter and leave at will. That impression would be false.”
The affidavit shows that Mr Carrim leaves the facility almost every day and is out for at least eight hours, sometimes longer, contradicting earlier patient references.
“almost every single day Mr Carrim leaves the facility and that on most days he is out of the facility for at least eight hours, sometimes longer”
The facility protocol for recording patient pass-outs is not followed; there are no records, and the doctor does not keep his own notes about when he issues or authorizes pass-outs.
“the facility protocol is not followed, that in fact the practice of keeping records is that it is just not honoured, that there are not any records. The doctor also tells us that he himself does not keep records”
The doctor does not keep records or notes of when he issues or authorizes pass-outs, and the facility protocol of record-keeping is not followed and not honoured.
“the facility protocol is not followed, that in fact the practice of keeping records is that it is just not honoured, that there are not any records. The doctor also tells us that he himself does not keep records. He does not keep his own notes of when he issues or authorises pass-outs.”
The doctor admits that the facility protocol for issuing passes is not followed and no records are kept as required, which he only disclosed in the second affidavit.
“at paragraph 18 is where the doctor explains that in fact what he said was not correct because the facility protocol is not followed, that in fact the practice of keeping records is that it is just not honoured, that there are not any records.”
