As many as 1,165 people starved to death in NHS hospitals over the past four years fuelling claims nurses are too busy to feed their patients.

The Department of Health branded the figures ‘unacceptable’ and said the number of unannounced inspections by the care watchdog will increase.

Wow, that’s comforting. You’d have to be pretty damn sick to go to an NHS hospital. Of course, one of the key questions is can you avoid them?
