Chapter 6: F2052SH AT MANCHESTER PRISON Summary 6.1 Sonny Lodge was transferred to Manchester prison on 9 July. He was assessed by a nurse and the medical officer. The F2052SH form was kept open until 20 July. After induction in K wing, Mr Lodge moved to E wing. He started work in the upholstery workshop but on 24 July he was sacked and charged with endangering health and safety with a staple gun. Healthcare assessment 6.2 On admission to Manchester Sonny Lodge was interviewed by a healthcare officer who made a detailed note in the Continuous Medical Record about their conversation, in which Sonny talked about the reasons for his self-harm and his present feelings and the healthcare officer assured him that he could talk to any member of the health care team at any time. 6.3 The next day Sonny saw the medical officer. The entry in the medical record is not easy to read but it appears Sonny said that he had been depressed and upset when he slashed his arms but now felt better and not suicidal at all. He seemed calm and had no suicidal ideation or intention. The medical officer recorded a plan in the medical record: shared cell for two weeks and review; no medication for the time being; on F2052SH and review. 6.4 No support plan was recorded on the F2052SH form which was opened at Garth and accompanied Sonny to Manchester. Daily supervision and support record 6.5 For the 12 days the form was open at Manchester, the 54 entries in the daily supervision and support record were as follows. I have abbreviated or clarified some entries and highlighted in bold type the 10 entries which appear to draw on conversation rather than just observation. 39
