Family plans legal action over father's death

A woman is planning to take legal action against her local hospital over concerns about her father's death.

Becky Goodchild's father, David Daly, 52, died at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton on 19 September 2019 following emergency surgery on a bleed on the brain.

Ms Goodchild said she has a "lot of questions" and she believes there is a possibility her father could still be alive if the hospital had acted differently.

Prof Katie Urch, chief medical officer for University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, said their "hearts go out" to his family, adding: "Our door will always remain open if there is anything we can do to provide answers or support."
