Medical Inquests is the first book in the area of inquests for over two decades to be published in Ireland. This book comprehensively examines the law around inquests concerning deaths in a medical setting. Areas addressed include: maternal deaths, deaths in psychiatric care, human rights and causation issues. Other topics covered are: practice and procedure in medical inquests, evidence, documentation and pandemics/Covid-19.
Medical Inquests critically assesses the pace of change of the law on coroner’s inquests and examines the case for change. The work is eagerly awaited in an area of law which is topical and specialised, yet of great public interest.
This book will appeal to all sitting coroners, as well as barristers, solicitors, law students, bereaved families and all those who must interact with the coroner’s service, following a patient’s death, including doctors, nurses and hospital managers.
