Feb 2010. A heath service provider pleaded guilty over failures that led to the death of 20-year-old patient, who had a learning disability.
Hospital officials entered their guilty plea at Basildon magistrate court on 26 February 2010. Sentencing will be delivered at Basildon Crown Court on Monday 15 March 2010.
