The scandal that shook the NHS
Patient neglect and the NHS, a decade on from the Stafford Hospital scandal.
Ten years ago today, a public inquiry concluded that patients were subject to shocking levels of neglect at Stafford Hospital - putting it among the worst care scandals in NHS history. A young local reporter, Shaun Lintern 鈥� now The Sunday Times' health editor 鈥� helped expose the scandal. With the NHS again under huge pressure, can we be sure the same failings won't happen again? Shaun speaks to the barrister who chaired the inquiry.
