Report into patient’s 2006 death still not available

NEARLY four years on the HSE still won’t say if it will honour its promise to publish a report into the death of a psycho-geriatric patient at a Co Cork hospital.

The HSE is still saying it is considering legal advice on the report carried out by an independent investigation team into the death of the 75-year-old woman.

Last September, the HSE said it was considering legal advice on the report into Hannah Comber’s death at Heatherside Hospital, near Buttevant, in June 2006.
