Possibly worth contacting Northamptonshire Record Office to see what they have on Berrywood.  A relative in a similar establlshment in Surrey was easy to find in the hospital records.

I am Zoe Northeast, granddaughter of Maximilian Double.
 
It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
Zoe

The Berrywood records are all at the Northants RO. They're not for the faint-hearted, though. Some of the details are pretty graphic!
