Russells Hall Hospital: NHS trust charged over patients' deaths
An NHS trust has been charged over the deaths of two patients.
The Care Quality Commission alleges Natalie Billingham, 33, and Kaysie-Jane Bland were exposed to "significant risk of avoidable harm" at Dudley's Russells Hall Hospital.
The regulator has brought the charges against Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust over two alleged breaches of the Health and Social Care Act.
This relates to the trust's duty to ensure safe care and treatment.
