Hospital trust and staff member found guilty of health and safety failings in patient's death A hospital trust and an employee were convicted of health and safety failings following the death of a young woman in a mental health unit. The North East London Foundation NHS Trust and ward manager Benjamin Aninakwa were found guilty over the death of Alice Figueiredo, 22, who took her own life in July 2015 at Goodmayes Hospital in east London. The jury found that not enough was done to prevent Alice from harming herself, although the trust was cleared of corporate manslaughter charges. Alice's family seeks transparency, justice, and better accountability in mental health care following the verdict.
