The Terms of Reference of the committee are to investigate the circumstances that led to the death of Mr. Mensah and to establish whether there was negligence on the part of staff in the handling of the patient.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mensah, 46, is said to have been admitted for strangulated hernia but was not operated upon as expected.<\/p>\n

Members of the surgical team which admitted the patient and other staff members are expected to appear before the committee to give evidence. The committee has up to 10th March 2014 to submit its report.<\/p>\n

The statement said the setting up of the committee is in compliance with the established grievance resolution and disciplinary procedures of the hospital.<\/p>\n
