NHS Highland has been fined £180,000 after a patient died while being treated at a hospital.
The 78 year-old-man was brought to hospital following a suspected fall at his home and was later admitted to the surgical ward.
While in hospital, the patient suffered from three additional falls which led to bleeding on the brain. He passed away from fatal head trauma two days after his final fall. HSE's investigation found that the necessary nursing staff to ensure the 1:1 ratio of care failed to be applied. Read this press release for more details on the incident.
