Title: A Report Into the Deaths of Looked After Children in Scotland 2009-2011

Summary: Any time a looked after child dies, local authorities must inform the Care Inspectorate, which is charged with reviewing the circumstances of the death. The report shows that 30 looked after children in Scotland died between 2009 and 2011. The report examines the causes of death, praises hospices for their care of children with life-limiting conditions and makes specific recommendations to ensure looked after children can access substance misuse treatment and local psychological services as necessary. The Care Inspectorate also recommends that all staff involved in the care of looked after children be confident in recognising and managing suicide risk factors.
