Police investigate claims over health board reports
Rab Wilson, who worked for NHS Ayrshire and Arran, requested copies of all “critical incident” reviews and significant “adverse event” reports, which are used to improve safety and patient care.
Mr Wilson turned to Information Commissioner Kevin Dunion after the health board told him it did not hold any critical incident review plans, apart from one it had already given him.
