Stafford Hospital deaths findings awaited

Posted: Wed 24th February, 2010 at 10:09


Further details are expected to emerge later about one of the worst scandals in the history of the NHS.

The Stafford Hospital independent inquiry is also due to report on what can be learned from the case.

Regulators said last year at least 400 more people had died at the hospital between 2005 and 2008 than would be expected, due to "appalling" care.

The government-commissioned inquiry has already been dubbed a whitewash by campaigners who want a public inquiry.

They have consistently called for a full public inquiry into how the scandal could have happened, including the role of the wider NHS in the case.
