HSE apologises over meningitis death of 39-year old father
Philip Morrissey was found slumped in his hospital bed having suffered cardiac arrest almost 10 hours after his wife was told he was suffering from constipation.
The apology was given in court yesterday as Mr Morrissey’s widow settled her action against the HSE for €455,000 over her husband’s death at St Luke’s Hospital, Kilkenny, on May 28, 2010, two days before his 40th birthday.
