HSE apologise to family of woman who died of brain haemorrhage
The HSE has apologised to the family of a 21-year-old woman over the deficiencies and failures which led to her death from a massive brain haemorrhage.
The High Court heard that Louise Butler died at Limerick Regional Hospital on November 16, 2006 from a large subarachnoid haemorrhage. However her family claimed that the HSE failed to properly diagnose that she was suffering from the condition when she presented at the hospital the previous October suffering with a serious headache.
