Nurse facing fitness to practise hearing

A NURSE who was part of a medical team that failed to properly treat a man who died days after the death of his baby son is facing a fitness to practise hearing.

Jennifer Stirling could be struck off the nursing register following the death of Allan Wales in Barlinnie Prison on March 1, 2009.

Mr Wales, 31, of Linwood, Renfrewshire, was found dead in his cell after suffering a heart attack on the day he was due to visit the body of his three-month-old son Dylan.
