Family Waits A Year For Mrsa Death Inquest

Link: Family Waits A Year For MRSA Death Inquest

       A WIDOW'S legal action over her husband's death from MRSA has prevented his inquest going ahead and left her estranged family in "turmoil". David Short, 61, of Zion Road, Blackburn, died after contracting MRSA during a routine operation for ulcerative colitis at Queen's Park Hospital on June 27 last year. An inquest into his death was opened on June 30. But despite calls from his brother, son and sister to have the inquest held then, the legal claim against the East Lancashire NHS Hospital's Trust by Mr Short's widow, Carol Anne, has delayed proceedings. Mrs Short, of Zion Road, said at the time of her husband's death that she had concerns over the standard of care he had received on ward B6. She said she had raised issues of cleanliness and hygiene with staff at the hospital.
