Kathy Goodchild, clinical team leader at the prison, told the inquest into his death that psychiatrists were not always present during reviews of care given to vulnerable prisoners.

However, she said better psychiatric cover was needed and there was "not always a psychiatrist on call" for things like approving medication. She wrote on 20 December that Mr Saunders should be seen by a psychiatrist the next day but that did not take place. "Any review," she said, "should be done by people who actually have got the information." She said Mr Saunders' family - who have strongly criticised the prison service for not watching him more closely - had raised concerns about him harming himself with her. However, she said: "I can't put people on constant watch because of families, it has to be on presentation or harm." The hearing continues.
summary: Better psychiatric cover is needed at a prison where an inmate was found electrocuted in his cell, an inquest has heard.
