Coroners have a duty to consider whether it is appropriate to make a report to prevent future deaths. These reports are known as prevention of future deaths, PFD reports or Regulation 28 reports. If a Coroner has concerns about future deaths, they will write a report requesting the person or organisation to set out what action has been taken to reassure the Coroner that the concerns have been addressed to prevent future deaths. The report and the response(s) will be sent to the Chief Coroner and may be sent to the family of the deceased and others. Where inquests involve a health and social care provider, the Coroner will usually send a copy of the PFD report to the Care Quality Commission (CQC). They may also be published.
