'Hospital contributed to daughter's death'

Safety across the NHS and care sectors in England is a "significant concern", with particular problems in hospitals, inspectors are warning.
The Care Quality Commission review found three-quarters of hospitals visited under its new inspection regime so far had safety problems.
Amie Miller died in 2008 at Basildon Hospital after suffering a seizure - in 2013, a coroner found "serious failings" in care had contributed to her death. Her parents, Sonia and Mbarak Aitmarri told the programme that the hospital had evaded their questions; while East Lancashire Hospitals Trust chief executive Kevin McGee said a culture of honesty was essential.
