Further to that the MDT advised that we should
assess Mr Cordell in clinic due to the potential
risks. We then offered him an appointment on the
28th September which Mr Cordell did not attend.

My report is based on the information which I
have extracted from RIO and my telephone
conversation with Mr Cordell’s mother.
Psychiatric history
On the 16th August 2016 Mr Cordell was
admitted to CFH under Section 2 of the MHA.
He was discharged on the 27th August 2016.
According to RIO notes Mr Cordell "was
arrested at his home address after his mother
raised concerns about his mental state - he was
allegedly verbally threatening towards his
neighbour and (?) neighbour's children. Simon's
mother called police who arrested him. He was
seen by the FME at Wood Green police station,
was then referred for MHA.”
He appealed against his Section. The Mental
Health Review Tribunal discharged him from
Section 2 on the 26th August 2016.
Leading to current admission
As I stated above leading to this admission Mr
Cordell did not attend appointments offered to
him by our service. Subsequently due to the
allegations made against him I was advised to
attend a Safeguarding meeting for an alleged
victim. In that meeting I was informed by the
Council that Mr Cordell has a past and current
history of physical and verbal aggression
towards residents in the building. I was informed
that the council has tried to work with Mr
Cordell but to no avail. I was informed me that
Mr Cordell was getting easily irritated even by
the sound of a flushing toilet; this happened very
recently and he threatened the resident
concerned. The Council was of the opinion that
these are signs of mental illness and suggested
that BEH should proceed with a MHA. The
