Highgate mental health patient ‘hanged herself’ on hospital ward
A mental health patient hanged herself on a hospital ward in between checks by nurses, an inquest has heard.

A jury was told that her doctors did not think it was necessary to increase the number of times she was checked on by staff, despite her suicidal thoughts.
