Former Footballer Kevin Campbell Death Investigation

Serious concerns have been raised regarding the hospital care received by former footballer Kevin Campbell, who passed away at the age of 54 at Manchester Royal Infirmary after being admitted a month earlier. The NHS trust managing the hospital declared a Level 5 patient safety incident, the most severe category, related to delays in care and diagnosis. The provisional cause of death was cited as multi-organ failure due to a heart infection, prompting internal investigations by the hospital trust. The inquest highlighted issues with decision-making processes and the quality of care provided to Mr. Campbell, with ongoing efforts to gather additional evidence and statements from relevant clinicians and family members for further investigation.
