THE Health Service Executive has been accused of “selectively leaking” a report into the death of a 75-year-old woman so it hangs “like a sword” over staff of the Cork hospital where she died.

AN independent investigation into the death of a 75-year-old patient at a north Cork hospital has finally been completed — nearly three years after the tragedy.

TO most of the people who live there, it’s not a hospital — it’s home.

HANNAH COMBER died while in the care of people to whom her family had entrusted her life.

DETAILS of the terms of reference and membership of an inquiry into the unexpected death of a 65-year-old woman at a North Cork nursing home have been published by the Health Service Executive (HSE).
