Coroner identifies issues regarding medical care at Chase Farm Hospital contributed to death

09/01/2014
Manori Wellington represented the family of Mr Turhan Hassan who died on 6 August 2012 following a medical procedure at Chase Farm Hospital. The Coroner for the Northern District of Greater London, Mr Andrew Walker, recorded a narrative verdict on 8 January 2014 and identified that Mr Hassan's death was contributed to in part by issues relating to the management of anti coagulant medication, Clexane, prior to a nephrostomy procedure that Mr Hassan underwent. Manori Wellington comments:

"Mr Hassan's death came as a complete shock to his wife and children. Mrs Hassan is relieved that a thorough Inquest took place and that the Coroner has identified that Mr Hassan's death was contributed to in part by aspects of the medical management.  She had concerns from the outset about the care her husband received."
