Dr. Stephanie O'Keeffe:

From CervicalCheck telling me that in addition, administrative leads in programme colposocopy services had been advised of the process, NSS CervicalCheck was providing additional support to consultant doctors in respect of carrying out open disclosure requirements and appropriate protocols and engagement between CervicalCheck and the consultant doctors would constitute an ongoing process. The summary was that communication with stakeholders and patients was being appropriately managed at that time. Because of the catastrophe that has happened and the majority of these patients ended up finding out in a way never envisaged by CervicalCheck or any of us and the usual management tools you use to be told these things did not turn up this information.
